Hmm this _should_ happen, if it doesn't it's certainly a bug.

This is true, I got a patch to fix this, but I'm not sure it should go
in (e.g. read data files from current working directory). It's not
common to be able to run C/gtk+ apps from the build directory, you
should install them in a local prefix.

Showing the parent subject should be fairly easy to fix, I'll see if I
can get that in. I have thought about a history-history, but I haven't
felt the need to use it yet (also I don't think GitX has this), but it
might be worth implementing.

Yes, you can click on the hunk header @@...@@ when viewing the diff in
the commit view. You can also rightclick on this header and revert a
hunk (or stage/unstage it from the context menu).
