Hello Johannes, > If you have an ambiguous ref, i.e. a file in the working directory bears > the same name, you have to use "--" at the end to disambiguate ref from > file. This works with "git rev-list". Make it work with gitk, too. This fixes only one half of the problem. Now gitk fixes ^linus/master -- works fine, but gitk fixes ^linus/master still hangs. I didn't try Gerrits patch yet. BTW, I don't use a range, because originally I used something like: git branch | cut -b3- | grep -v ^attic/ | xargs gitk ^linus/master Now I have to think how I can add the ending "--" ...
