[PATCH 0/3] gitk: improve dark background

Junio, I submitted the 'gitk: improve dark background' patch to the list, made improvements based on the feedback, and submitted the result two weeks ago without any further feedback. I put my changes off of master, but gitk is identical in both maint and master. Can you pull the changes? branch gitk_colors from git://gitorious.org/~dfries/git/dfriess-git-mainline.git This e-mail is also a replay to the last posting of the patches.

The gitk preferences allow for the user to select different colors.
The setui is even set to dynamically detect how light or dark the
background is and set the selection color to be the opposite, but
there are a few other color selections that don't currently work with
a dark background such as the black outlines. This patch improves the
color selection. In some cases it just needs to use the current
forground color, other places it is more complicated.
