[PATCH] gitk: avoid crash if closed while reading references

From: Pat Thoyts <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:46:36
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

  As recorded in msysGit issue 125 if the user closes gitk while it
  reports itself as still reading references then Tk will crash in the
  geometry management code. This has been fixed for Tk 8.5.7 and above.
  This patch avoids the problem by flushing outstanding geometry events
  before calling the readrefs procedure.
