Thanks for the tip, but:
- I tend to use "qgit", not "gitk"
- I don't compile git myself, but rather I use the Debian packaged one
So I'll just live with less automatic highlighting :-)

One ludicrously minor nit: we should put references to bug reports,
names of people to thanks, or old commits that introduced a regression
*before* the list of touched files, and always separated by a leading
and a trailing blank line; like this:
docs: remove reference to lzma support, it has been removed
Support for lzma compression in distribution tarball has been
removed in commit 'v1.11-1674-g02e9072' of 01-01-2012, "dist:
remove support for lzma (superseded by xz and lzip)", but was
still documented in the manual.
* doc/automake.texi: Remove references to the 'dist-lzma' option
and to the lzma compression support.
or this:
tests: fix a timestamp issue, and other minor buglets
Reported by Panther Martin in automake bug#10848.
* tests/conffile-leading-dot.test: Add a proper '$sleep' invocation,
to avoid spurious failures on fast systems without sub-second
timestamp resolutions. Add other minor related and unrelated
improvements and fixlets since we are at it.
Thanks,
Stefano
