 Hello, guys.

 I've hacked tkdiff and made a commit viewing utility.  Just download
the following tarball and unpack it whereever PATH points to.  It
assumes that all base git executables are visible via PATH.

 http://home-tj.org/gitui/files/gitui-200504281405.tar.gz

$ gitkdiff -h
/home/tj/bin/gitkdiff: illegal option -- h
GIT tkdiff - gitkdiff 0.1

Usage: gitkdiff [OPTS...] DIFFSPEC

OPTS are
    -h                      prints this help message and exit

DIFFSPEC can be one of
    [files...]              the current cache vs. working files
    -r R [files...]         files in commit R's parent vs. files in commit R
    -r R0 -r R1 [files...]  files in commit R0 vs. files in commit R1

If no file is specified, all modified files are shown.

very nice!

there's only one other utility i'm missing: a tool that does the 
equivalent of 'bk annotate' - and to possibly integrate it with gitkdiff 
and git-viz. That would make 'history browsing' very powerful: to 
flexibly switch between changeset history graph view, annotated file 
view and changeset history within one utility.

  Actually, I am thinking about making a full gui history thing.  With 
commit history graph, annoatated file history and all those stuff (I 
think it will look a lot like bk revtool).  Can't say how long it will 
take but maybe in a week.  So, if you have some ideas/suggestions, 
please let me know.

Probably not what you meant, but I think dirdiff does something similar.
Some changes again Paul's version are available from
