How can i configure font size in gitk? [closed]

Question

Using Linux, how can i configure font and font size in gitk?

Looking through the menus can be quite frustrating as they offer very little configuration possibilities.

Answer 1

You can configure the font and font size in either:

• ~/.config/git/gitk or
• ~/.gitk

Example:

set mainfont {Monaco 10}
set textfont {Monaco 10}
set uifont {Monaco 10}

You can also do it through the tool itself:

1. Open menu Edit/Preferences
2. Click Fonts
3. Click for example Main font to set the properties of the main font
