Hi, I get the following error when invoking gitk with any command line argument, for example, 'gitk --all': ziti:~/proj/R-devel seth$ gitk --all Error in startup script: unknown option "-state" while executing ".bar.view entryconf 3 -state normal" invoked from within "if {$cmdline_files ne {} || $revtreeargs ne {}} { # create a view for the files/dirs specified on the command line set curview 1 set selec..." (file "/Users/seth/scm/bin/gitk" line 6298) I tried a certainly incorrect thing; just commenting out the offending lines: diff --git a/gitk b/gitk index ab383b3..a6c0a9f 100755 --- a/gitk +++ b/gitk @@ -6305,8 +6305,8 @@ if {$cmdline_files ne {} || $revtreeargs set viewargs(1) $revtreeargs set viewperm(1) 0 addviewmenu 1 - .bar.view entryconf 2 -state normal - .bar.view entryconf 3 -state normal +# .bar.view entryconf 2 -state normal +# .bar.view entryconf 3 -state normal } if {[info exists permviews]} { And now gitk _seems_ to work. No error message, and I can pass argument to gitk like --all (wow, very useful). I posted about this in October [*1*], but didn't get any response. I'd like to be able to use gitk without my must-be-wrong patch. This is on OS X ppc (git version 1.4.4.rc1.g73347) with Tcl & Tk at 8.4.7. Can I provide more info? Have I missed a configuration step?
