Using gitk over the network

Hi there,

I'm using gitk through an SSH-tunnelled X11 connection.  Once loaded,
the GUI is usable on a DSL connection, but the problem is that gitk
loads the whole commit history, not only the commits that will fit on
screen.  It can take up to a minute with our repository for the GUI to
be ready, especially when visualizing all branches.

I thought I'd let you know, in the case there is the possibility to
have some sort of progressive loading in the future.  Compared to
gitk, git-gui works fine in this environment.

NOTE: I discovered tig today on this very mailing-list, and I admit
it's fulfilling part of our usecase, but maybe there are some people
in my team that are reluctant to text-based interfaces, who knows.

Cheers,
