<h1>
gitk(1) Manual Page
</h1>
<h2>NAME</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<p>gitk -
The git repository browser
</p>
</div>
</div>
<h2>SYNOPSIS</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<p><em>gitk</em> [&lt;option&gt;&#8230;] [&lt;revs&gt;] [--] [&lt;path&gt;&#8230;]</p>
</div>
<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<p>Displays changes in a repository or a selected set of commits. This includes
visualizing the commit graph, showing information related to each commit, and
the files in the trees of each revision.</p>
<p>Historically, gitk was the first repository browser. It's written in tcl/tk
and started off in a separate repository but was later merged into the main
git repository.</p>
</div>
<h2>OPTIONS</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<p>To control which revisions to shown, the command takes options applicable to
the <a href="git-rev-list.html">git-rev-list(1)</a> command. This manual page describes only the most
frequently used options.</p>
<dl>
<dt>
-n &lt;number&gt;, --max-count=&lt;number&gt;
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Limits the number of commits to show.
</p>
</dd>
<dt>
--since=&lt;date&gt;
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Show commits more recent than a specific date.
</p>
</dd>
<dt>
--until=&lt;date&gt;
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Show commits older than a specific date.
</p>
</dd>
<dt>
--all
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Show all branches.
</p>
</dd>
<dt>
--merge
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
After an attempt to merge stops with conflicts, show the commits on
the history between two branches (i.e. the HEAD and the MERGE_HEAD)
that modify the conflicted files.
</p>
</dd>
<dt>
&lt;revs&gt;
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Limit the revisions to show. This can be either a single revision
meaning show from the given revision and back, or it can be a range in
the form "<em>&lt;from&gt;</em>..<em>&lt;to&gt;</em>" to show all revisions between <em>&lt;from&gt;</em> and
back to <em>&lt;to&gt;</em>. Note, more advanced revision selection can be applied.
For a more complete list of ways to spell object names, see
"SPECIFYING REVISIONS" section in <a href="git-rev-parse.html">git-rev-parse(1)</a>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt>
&lt;path&gt;
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Limit commits to the ones touching files in the given paths. Note, to
avoid ambiguity wrt. revision names use "--" to separate the paths
from any preceding options.
</p>
</dd>
</dl>
</div>
<h2>Examples</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<dl>
<dt>
gitk v2.6.12.. include/scsi drivers/scsi
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Show as the changes since version <em>v2.6.12</em> that changed any
file in the include/scsi or drivers/scsi subdirectories
</p>
</dd>
<dt>
gitk --since="2 weeks ago" -- gitk
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Show the changes during the last two weeks to the file <em>gitk</em>.
The "--" is necessary to avoid confusion with the <strong>branch</strong> named
<em>gitk</em>
</p>
</dd>
<dt>
gitk --max-count=100 --all -- Makefile
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Show at most 100 changes made to the file <em>Makefile</em>. Instead of only
looking for changes in the current branch look in all branches.
</p>
</dd>
</dl>
</div>
<h2>Files</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<p>Gitk creates the .gitk file in your $HOME directory to store preferences
such as display options, font, and colors.</p>
