The SYNOPSIS sections of most commands that span several lines already use [verse] to retain line breaks. Most commands that don't span several lines seem not to use [verse]. In the HTML output, [verse] does not only preserve line breaks, but also makes the section indented, which causes a slight inconsistency between commands that use [verse] and those that don't. Use [verse] in all SYNOPSIS sections for consistency. Also remove the blank lines from git-fetch.txt and git-rebase.txt to align with the other man pages. In the case of git-rebase.txt, which already uses [verse], the blank line makes the [verse] not apply to the last line, so removing the blank line also makes the formatting within the document more consistent. While at it, add single quotes to 'git cvsimport' for consistency with other commands.

NAME
|
|
----
|
|
gitk - The git repository browser
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'gitk' [<option>...] [<revs>] [--] [<path>...]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Displays changes in a repository or a selected set of commits. 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
|
|
-------
|
|
To control which revisions to show, the command takes options applicable to
|
|
the 'git rev-list' command (see linkgit:git-rev-list[1]).
|
|
This manual page describes only the most
|
|
frequently used options.
|
|
|
|
-n <number>::
|
|
--max-count=<number>::
|
|
|
|
Limits the number of commits to show.
|
|
|
|
--since=<date>::
|
|
|
|
Show commits more recent than a specific date.
|
|
|
|
--until=<date>::
|
|
|
|
Show commits older than a specific date.
|
|
|
|
--all::
|
|
|
|
Show all branches.
|
|
|
|
--merge::
|
|
|
|
After an attempt to merge stops with conflicts, show the commits on
|
|
the history between two branches (i.e. the HEAD and the MERGE_HEAD)
|
|
that modify the conflicted files and do not exist on all the heads
|
|
being merged.
|
|
|
|
--argscmd=<command>::
|
|
Command to be run each time gitk has to determine the list of
|
|
<revs> to show. The command is expected to print on its standard
|
|
output a list of additional revs to be shown, one per line.
|
|
Use this instead of explicitly specifying <revs> if the set of
|
|
commits to show may vary between refreshes.
|
|
|
|
--select-commit=<ref>::
|
|
|
|
Automatically select the specified commit after loading the graph.
|
|
Default behavior is equivalent to specifying '--select-commit=HEAD'.
|
|
|
|
<revs>::
|
|
|
|
Limit the revisions to show. 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.
|
|
For a more complete list of ways to spell object names, see
|
|
linkgit:gitrevisions[7].
|
|
|
|
<path>...::
|
|
|
|
Limit commits to the ones touching files in the given paths. Note, to
|
|
avoid ambiguity with respect to revision names use "--" to separate the paths
|
|
from any preceding options.
|
|
|
|
Examples
|
|
--------
|
|
gitk v2.6.12.. include/scsi drivers/scsi::
|
|
|
|
Show the changes since version 'v2.6.12' that changed any
|
|
file in the include/scsi or drivers/scsi subdirectories
|
|
|
|
gitk --since="2 weeks ago" \-- gitk::
|
|
|
|
Show the changes during the last two weeks to the file 'gitk'.
|
|
The "--" is necessary to avoid confusion with the *branch* named
|
|
'gitk'
|
|
|
|
gitk --max-count=100 --all \-- Makefile::
|
|
|
|
Show at most 100 changes made to the file 'Makefile'. Instead of only
|
|
looking for changes in the current branch look in all branches.
|
|
|
|
Files
|
|
-----
|
|
