From: Gary Wang via GitGitGadget Date: Thu, 26 Feb 2026 12:33:15 GMT Subject: [PATCH] gitk: support config the color of linkfgcolor via Gitk Preferences Message-ID: From: Wang Zichong As a dark-theme user, I use the Preferences dialog to set colors for gitk, the only color I cannot change via that dialog is the link foreground color, which will lead me to use the default link color on a dark background that make it not really readable. This patch makes the link foreground color also configurable in the Gitk Preferences dialog's Color tab, so user won't need to dig into the code/manual to know if the link color is configurable and can simply set the color there.
