Ahhh... "--since='1 week ago'" doesn't work because of the extra set of single quotes: we end up doing:

	git-rev-parse --default HEAD "--since='1 week ago'"
which gives this error:
	date: invalid date `'1 week ago''
	fatal: git-rev-list: bad date string

Gitk's error message is admittedly less than informative, but that's the worst it's guilty of (this time :).
