The gitk gui layout was completely broken on Cygwin. If gitk was started
without previous geometry in ~/.gitk, the user could drag the window
sashes to get a useable layout. However, if ~/.gitk existed, this was
not possible at all.
The fix was to rewrite makewindow, changing the toplevel containers and
the particular geometry information saved between sessions. Numerous
bugs in both the Cygwin and the Linux Tk versions make this a delicate
balancing act: the version here works in both but many subtle variants
are competely broken in one or the other environment.
Three user visible changes result:
1 - The viewer is fully functional under Cygwin.
2 - The search bar moves from the bottom to the top of the lower left
pane. This was necessary to get around a layout problem on Cygwin.
3 - The window size and position is saved and restored between sessions.
Again, this is necessary to get around a layout problem on Cygwin.
Also, responding to other comments on this thread:
1) Regarding the size of the patch. I tried many different approaches to
getting the layout to work on Cgywin as well as Linux, ultimately the
only approach that worked required changing the very top level structure
containing the Tk widgets. As the style used names all widgets using
their parents, every widget's name is changed. This makes the patch seem
more complex than it is, many changes are just changing names. There
might be a simpler solution, I didn't find it and I can find absolutely
no indication from googling that anyone else has found a better solution.
2) I have changed the default window size (used only the first time gitk
is run) to be smaller. This may address the problem of layout noted in
mingw. Note that the search bar is not at the bottom left, but is now
middle left. On cygwin, the widgets mostly resize with the window, but
may not always do so if the resizing is significant, and in particular
the lower left pane can extend below the window and be clipped.
Restarting gitk after setting the desired geometry will cause all
widgets to size correctly, so this layout problem is a minor annoyance
suffered only the first time, and only on Cygwin (it does not happen on
Linux).
3) I have tried this extensively on Linux and Cygwin (the latter using
the native Tcl /Tk as well as one built for the X-server under cygwin).
This version of gitk works well in all, and as far as I can tell has no
regressions from the current version while significantly improving the
situation in native Cygwin.

Subject: [PATCH] Make gitk work reasonably well on Cygwin.
The gitk gui layout was completely broken on Cygwin. If gitk was started
without previous geometry in ~/.gitk, the user could drag the window sashes
to get a useable layout. However, if ~/.gitk existed, this was not possible
at all.
The fix was to rewrite makewindow, changing the toplevel containers and
the particular geometry information saved between sessions. Numerous bugs
in both the Cygwin and the Linux Tk versions make this a delicate
balancing act: the version here works in both but many subtle variants
are competely broken in one or the other environment.
Three user visible changes result:
1 - The viewer is fully functional under Cygwin.
2 - The search bar moves from the bottom to the top of the lower left
pane. This was necessary to get around a layout problem on Cygwin.
3 - The window size and position is saved and restored between sessions.
Again, this is necessary to get around a layout problem on Cygwin.
