Hi Paul,

As Steve Cotton reported [1], the Edit View... dialog in gitk always defaults to not remembering the view, which makes it easy to lose settings if one is not careful.

These patches fix it. The first one adds two one-line comments from my investigation into the issue. The second one fixes the obvious bug.

I am cc-ing others in case I have missed anything obvious or people have comments on style.

I hope you enjoy the patches.
Kind regards,

  gitk: Add comments to explain encode_view_opts and decode_view_opts
  gitk: Edit View unsets Remember this view
