This change is\n  due to the efforts of Matthijs Melchior, and makes the main\n  interface window slightly more pleasing to read.\n\n* Vastly improved internal blame viewer.  The new viewer was\n  incrementally improved, but in the end it amounted to a total\n  rewrite by the time we reached the 0.7.3 release.\n\n* Blame viewer now shows two blame passes side-by-side on the\n  same file, giving the user fast access to original author and\n  relocation author, for any line of the file.\n\n* Mouse tooltips appear in the blame viewer when you mouse over\n  a line of interest.\n\n* Hyperlinks to original location are offered for both the original\n  commit and the relocation commit in the blame viewer.\n\nBug fixes since 0.7.2:\n\n* Allow creating a branch when none exists.  Previously we crashed\n  if the repository had no local branches, but had a valid HEAD.\n\n* Better handle internal Tk destroy messages sent to widgets;\n  we used to terminate the entire git-gui process when any widget\n  was destroyed.\n\n* Minor font corrections, where git-gui was not honoring the user's\n  configured preferences.\n\n-- \nShawn.\n"}]}
