The commit message could be improved. It should first describe the problem it is trying to solve, why it is worth solving, and then tell the codebase to fix it. The details of how it is done can be learned from the contents of the patch, so they are not as important. How about the message below? The colors of some ttext widgets are hard-coded. These hard-coded colors are okay with a light theme but with a dark theme some widgets are dark colored and the hard-coded ones are still light. This defeats the purpose of applying the theme and makes the UI look very awkward. Remove the hard-coded colors in ttext calls and use colors from the theme for those widgets via Text.Background and Text.Foreground from the option database. Similarly, the highlighting for the currently selected file(s) in the "Staged Files" and "Unstaged Files" sections is also hard-coded. Pull the colors for that from the current theme to make sure it is in line with the rest of the theme colors. No need to resend. I'll use this message when applying unless you have any suggestions or objections. > Signed-off-by: Serg Tereshchenko > --- > git-gui.sh | 17 +++++++++++------ > lib/themed.tcl | 38 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > 2 files changed, 49 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) The rest of the patch looks good. Will apply. Thanks. -- Regards, Pratyush Yadav
