"gitk" was cute, "gitool" is just irritating ;) I was calling it "gitt" for a long time, which is at least shorter and easier to type. I also thought of "tick" (anagram of tk + "ci" for check in), but maybe all that shows I've been doing too many cryptic crosswords lately. :) The "gitool" was by analogy with the "citool" of another system we've both used. I'm happy to change it if someone has a better idea... Paul.
