From b2b76d10696d945bf19318831b64d009d119e051 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Marcus Karlsson Date: Tue, 4 Oct 2011 22:08:13 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] gitk: Teach gitk to respect log.showroot In early days, all projects managed by git (except for git itself) had the product of a fairly mature development history in their first commit, and it was deemed unnecessary clutter to show additions of these thousands of paths as a patch. "git log" learned to show the patch for the initial commit without requiring --root command line option at 0f03ca9 (config option log.showroot to show the diff of root commits, 2006-11-23). Teach gitk to respect log.showroot.
