Hello,

just to let you know ...

(This happens with Debian's git 1.7.2.3.)

If gitk only shows a few commits such that the canvas containing the
list isn't completely filled, I can scroll the commits down using the
mouse wheel.  Then clicking on a commit doesn't work anymore.  I have to
click in the upper area of the canvas to change the focus, that feels
scary.  I would expect that scrolling doesn't work at all.

When changing the highlight drop box to "touching paths" and entering a
string starting with / sometimes a message on the console is printed
("oops, git diff-tree died") sometimes together with an error dialog.
I would expect here that this path is smoothly ignored.  (Maybe unless the
path specifies the working copy?).

Best regards
Uwe
