Subject: Commit 140b378d07229e breaks gitk highlighting
Message-ID: <30e4a070809090531i6c6dd2c8r189e70927b5444c9@mail.gmail.com>

gitk since the above commit ("Teach git diff-tree --stdin to diff
trees") fails to reliably highlight commits matching a given path
specification. For an example of the problem,

   $gitk ec3a4ba519c001

   and select commit "touching paths" with "t" in the entry bar

The 4'th commit down (t9124: clean up chdir usage) is NOT highlighted,
though it clearly touches t. Reverting commit 140b378 restores the
correct behavior. This gets into parts of the code I don't understand,
so I decline to try to offer a patch.
