This series improves git gui blame usability by providing better integration with gitk, and thus supporting more ways of navigating the history. Viewing the history context is especially useful if the repository is imported from a VCS without atomic commits, and thus related changes are often fragmented into a sequence of several commit objects. Note: Show History Context won't work if gitk is unpatched. Usage scenario: 1. Start git gui blame from an IDE macro; use --line=... to immediately scroll to the same position as the IDE editor. 2. Use 'Show History Context' to view the diff and surrounding commits. 3. Use 'Blame parent commit' in gitk to explore blame for other files touched by the same commit. 4. If the change is irrelevant (e.g. some variable was renamed), close gitk and use 'Blame Parent Commit' in Gui Blame to restart search.
