Hi All!
There is a bug in gitk (e.g. 2.11.0):
1) Choose a repository with files in a subdir (git's repo for example). 2) `cd` to a subdir (e.g. `xdiff`). 3) Run `gitk`. 4) Select 'Tree' in the 'Patch / Tree' panel. 5) Select any file with 'Highlight this too' or 'Highlight this only' (e.g `xmerge.c`). 6) See the short file name (`xmerge.c`) instead of the full path (`xdiff/xmerge.c`) in the 'Find commit touching path:' edit field. No commits touching the file can be found.
