This includes +visualizing the commit graph, showing information related to each commit, and +the files in the trees of each revision. +Historically, gitk was the first repository browser. It's written in tcl/tk +and started off in a separate repository but was later merged into the main +git repository. OPTIONS ------- ---option:: - Some option not yet documented. +To control which revisions to shown, the command takes options applicable to +the gitlink:git-rev-list[1] command.

This can be either a single revision + meaning show from the given revision and back, or it can be a range in + the form "'<from>'..'<to>'" to show all revisions between '<from>' and + back to '<to>'. Note, more advanced revision selection can be applied. + +<path>:: + + Limit commits to the ones touching files in the given paths. Note, to + avoid ambiguity wrt. revision names use "--" to separate the paths + from any preceeding options.
