hgk: colorize commits by authors Color commits by author. Colors will be assigned to authors by using a configurable list of colors. The line corresponding to current id (the version currently in the working tree) is highlighted in a special font which is also configurable. There is provision to assign fixed colors to authors. See .gitk comment for details.
