On Redhat Enterprise gitk returns the following error when launched:

Error in startup script: unknown color name "lime"
    (processing "-fill" option)
    invoked from within
"$progresscanv create rect -1 0 0 $h -fill lime"
    (procedure "makewindow" line 201)
    invoked from within
"makewindow"
    (file "/..../bin/git-exe/bin/gitk" line 12434)

The fix is to change lime with {lime green}

Regards

```
