Differing results between gitk --follow and git log --follow

From: Joshua Jensen <hidden>

  When I run git log --follow, I see a nice history of my file as it was 
renamed.

When I run gitk --follow, I see the beginnings of the history, but there 
are missing parts.

Is there a way to convince gitk to show me the same bits as git log 
--follow?

Thanks.

Josh

Sadly, no, not without major surgery to the follow code. See:

Interesting... and way beyond my current capabilities... :(

Thanks for the response.
