Hi,
  
  This is qgit, basically a porting of gitk to Qt/C++.

Has mainly all the features of gitk, some differences
are an uglier graph and a quick start alghoritm that
doesn't use git-rev-tree.

Just run make, install the bin anywhere in the path
and run from any git project working directory to see
the graph

Should be quite friendly to use; just go
(double)clicking around.


Download link is:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=139897&package_id=153471&release_id=331341

Home page:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/qgit/

Hope you enjoy it
Marco Costalba

Hi Marco,

Obligatory screenshot:

Some quick feedback:

>   This is qgit, basically a porting of gitk to Qt/C++.

The tarball extracts to the current directory which isn't very friendly.

Out of the box it wouldn't compile for several reasons on my own
computer.  I have attached a diff but the only real solution is to use
autotools as my diff will now only work on Gentoo systems.

Hope this helps.

This looks like very bad athena widget set. Not qtish =)

If you could, please do not use autotools. qmake or better scons is the way to 
go. With scons (even if you distribute together with program) overhead does 
not exceed 60kb and i guess everyone has python installed these days (if not 
- qmake can handle it just right).

If you need a patch for scons, drop me a mail.
