Hi list,

[git-gui version 0.8.4
  git version 1.5.3.4.398.g859b
  Tcl/Tk version 8.4.7
  OSX 10.4.10]

I've just realized that git-gui wasn't only using 3 lines of context in the diffs so I changed the setting under the menu Wish>Options... under the section `Global'. I had to restart git-gui so that the new setting is taken into account. Admittedly, it's a minor inconvenience, but I thought I'd let you know, in case one of the Tcl/ Tk hackers out there want to fix it :-)

Also, when I click the green `+' to maximize the size of the window of git-gui, it doesn't do anything.

Cheers,

Would not clicking on another file have done the trick, too?
