One of these "weird usage causes weird bugs".
One way to reproduce:
mkdir foo
cd foo
git init
git commit -am "Initial"
gitk &
# or
gitk --all &
<F5>
Resulting in (gitk-git/gitk line 503 - 512):
can't read "viewmainheadid_orig(1)": no such variable
can't read "viewmainheadid_orig(1)": no such variable
while executing
"if {$mainheadid ne $viewmainheadid_orig($view)} {
if {$showlocalchanges} {
dohidelocalchanges
}
set viewmainheadid($view) $mainheadid
set vie..."
(procedure "updatecommits" line 13)
invoked from within
"updatecommits"
(command bound to event)
As "$mainheadid" is not set, should there be something in the
direction of this perhaps?
