Repost: [PATCH] gitk: Decode the "-n" argument properly for Edit View

From: Jim Ramsay <i.am@jimramsay.com>

Message-ID: <20100602111657.2e91faec@vrm378-02.vrm378.am.mot.com>

Running 'gitk -n 42' and selecting View > Edit View... would previously put the '-n' half of the argument-pair in the box labeled "Additional arguments to git log" and the '42' in "Branches & Tags". Parse this pair properly and use the numerical portion for the 'limit' value.
