From: Mike Harrison ------------------------------------------------------ If any of you are using 'git' for version control, I have a new favorite toy: gitk. it's kinda sorta like: git log -p filename With a gui interface that works fairly well, even when logged into a remote server ( using ssh -X ). http://git-scm.com/docs/gitk or just: "apt-get install gitk" (for those debian-ish users)
