Unfortunately, it seems to be too aggressive, leading to a misleading
display. When gitk is invoked from a subdirectory but without the
filter, the lower right panel displays some paths, relative to the
root of the work tree, and some, relative to the wd:

$ # fresh netinstall with checked out devel's
$ cd /
$ gitk --all & # 1
$ cd /bin
$ gitk --all & # 2

1. bin/move-wiki.sh when devel is selected; share/WinGit/install.iss -
when installer-improvements is selected (that's correct)

2. move-wiki.sh on devel; share/WinGit/install.iss on installer-improvements
That's misleading.

And honestly, I'm not that advanced in gitk use, so somebody will
probably have to do some more testing.

Thanks!
