Hi.
I see a bug with the diff view of gitk.
when the text " <items>" or " </items>" appears
on one of the surrounding contexts lines in a diff,
gitk treats it as part of the "Old Version", highlighting it in red,
and hiding it if "New Version" is selected
I don't know if any other magic words are affected
ied it with the master
bug confirmed exists in github/git/git/master
I created a small repository that shows the error for me:
clone it to reproduce the behavior
