Package: gitk Version: 1:1.7.5.4-1 Severity: wishlist File: /usr/bin/gitk Tags: upstream
Git notes are managed in a separate DAG in the same repo. I would be tempted to argue that noone really cares about this implementation detail, especially not if you can manage Git notes via gitk's interface. Please provide the ability to hide commits only reachable from the refs/notes/commit ref. I would say that these should be hidden by default. Please also make the refname (refs/notes/commit) configurable and extensible (allow multiple ones to be specified). This feature could also be used to hide pristine-tar branches, or refs/top-bases/*, so it might be worthwhile to make (or just name) it more generic. Maybe an additional option could control whether refs should be shown in gitk on commits, when they are reachable from visible refs. For instance, I might choose to hide refs/top-bases/*, but some other path (from a branch head) might include commits referenced by refs/top-bases/*. In this case it would be good if the refs/top-bases/* refs didn't show up in the standard gitk display, but some users might want to make this configurable. I would say it should default to now show. Upon inspection of the gitk references, I found that gitk allows one to specify which refs to include. My feature request is the opposite, an exclude filter. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_NZ, LC_CTYPE=en_NZ.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gitk depends on: ii git 1:1.7.5.4-1 fast, scalable, distributed revisi ii tk 8.5.0-2 The Tk toolkit for Tcl and X11 (de gitk recommends no packages.
