Re: [PATCH (GITK,GIT-GUI,DOCS) 1/7] gitk: Allow overriding the default commit.

Other GUI tools may occasionally need to start
gitk and make it automatically select a certain
commit. This patch supports doing it using a new
command-line option.

Could you have used the existing pending_select for this?  Was there a
reason not to use it?
