That's _really_ appreciated.

Just one thing for now.  Double click on a file on the "rev list" tab should
show the patch (what Ctrl-P would do), not the whole file.  That would be more
compatible with gitk, and it's what I normally need if I just browse the latest
changes in the rev list.

The later is very useful, but a bit hard to discover without checking the menu. 
Maybe it should be a button in the toolbar.

I don't think re-clone should be needed.  I didn't re-clone, yet I could update.

On the other hand, that host sometimes returns something that crashes
git-http-fetch.  Sorry, no time to debug it right now.  I guess it returns
error messages in HTML without reporting error 404, but git-http-fetch should
be more robust anyway.
