I didn't repost. Or at the least, I didn't mean to repost. The mailing list kept complaining (spamming me) that my post was pending, and I eventually realised that was the old forum. I deleted it from there, and copy-pasted here. I didn't even realise it had posted here, and that when I deleted from the old forum, it didn't delete here.

My apologies, yes, in gitk.

Example (unless specified, commands as entered into bash)
mkdir temp cd temp git init gitk --all & git commit --allow-empty -m '1' git tag v1 git commit --allow-empty -m '1.1' git tag v1.1 git commit --allow-empty -m '1.2' git tag v1.2 (in gitk, press ctrl+f5; all follows and precedes info is there) git checkout v1.1 git commit --allow-empty -m '1.1.1' git tag v1.1.1 (in gitk, press f5; follows and precedes info missing for v1.1 and v1.1.1) (close gitk) gitk --all & (info still missing) git commit --allow-empty -m '1.1.2' git tag v1.1.2 (in gitk, press f5, info still missing) git checkout master git commit --allow-empty -m '1.3' git tag v1.3 (in gitk, press f5, info still missing) git commit --allow-empty -m '1.4' git tag v1.4 (in gitk, press f5, info still missing) git checkout -b temp v1.2 git commit --allow-empty -m '1.2.1' git tag v1.2.1 (in gitk, press f5, info still missing) git checkout master git branch -D temp git commit --allow-empty -m '1.5' git tag v1.5 (in gitk, press f5, info still missing)
In the end, the only follows/precedes info is: v1: precedes v1.1 v1.1: follows v1, precedes v1.2 v1.2: follows v1.1 All the rest is missing.
