How do I add a custom command to gitk's menu shown when right-clicking a commit? The command I want to add specifically is git revert, but I'm hoping for a generic solution.

gitk is a tcl script. You could simply add commands to it (assuming you know a little about tcl).

  • I could see doing that as a last resort. But if it's possible to do it via configuration, I'd rather do that. So let's wait a bit to see if someone can tell if there's a config option to do this. – Cactus Sep 11 '13 at 03:02
  • I agree with you it would be nice just to plug a script in as I do not know tcl very well. – cforbish Sep 11 '13 at 03:23

A menu item for git-revert was added recently to gitk:

commit f74455ab216bdc4f21a733f75ddd6974634c5df1

Just clone the git sources from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
