Thank you very much!

For gitk's support of Tk 9, I was following (It's authored by `mark987`, don't know if that's you) Comparing that with the commit history of that repo, a large part of it might already be merged (quite recently)? To really be up to date, I'd have to be also following the Git mailing list, which I haven't.

There is also `git-gui` is very commonly packaged together with `gitk`.

But the real question in my mind is when various packagers will package `gitk` with a dependency on Tk 9 as opposed to Tk 8, since most people don't use `gitk` directly from the repo. Homebrew is doing pretty well with Tk 9 support, I'm not sure about Git for Windows and various Linux repos.
