Hi

I'm looking for documentation on gitk and the gui that is distributed with git.
Could anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks
Chris Miles

How about

man gitk
man git-gui

The latter is the same as "git help gui". There is no "git help k",
though :)

Cheers,

Here's my attempt to document the GUI parts of gitk (the command line options
you can get from 'man gitk' suggested above).  I haven't maintained it or
updated it in a while but what there is should still be correct.  It may even
be useful :-)
