Re: Gitk: shortcut to jump to the current HEAD (yellow spot)?

2011/12/23 Dirk Süsserott [off-list ref]:

That's because gitk behaves odd (at least to me) when not run from the
top-level directory. E.g. the "touching paths" box won't find files in
the top dir if you don't prefix them with a slash.

This should be fixed in c332f44 (gitk: Fix file highlight when run in
subdirectory, 2011-04-04), which is in the current master and thus, I
believe, to be released in Git 1.7.9.
