Would give you a new git subcommand:

	git new

which shows all of the new stuff, on all branches, but doesn't show
your prior commit history.

Yes, but what I meant was that gitk wouldn't stop at ORIG_HEAD,
but just display it as another branch head with a nice green tag.
Normally, displaying ORIG_HEAD would probably not be interesting,
but it might make sense with

        gitk --all

It would give more context to the pull than just

        gitk ORIG_HEAD..
