The context menu for regular commits would need a new  \nentry.\n\nOf course, this can easily be done via command line - but that's true for  \nevery gitk feature :)\n\nAnother feature that would really suit gitk is the \"Tools\" menu from  \ngit-gui. A simple 1:1 copy would be fine ;)\n\n\n\n-- \nregards,\nstef\n"}]}
