It also good because it can filter the changesets, for example it can
show only a named branch, which is a very useful feature.

However, hgk has a much better visual appearance because
      * it shows much more changesets at the same time using the same
        font size as hgtk. Also the parallel lines occupy unnecessary
        large space in hgtk.
      * The tags are displayed much better in hgk.
      * not so important, but I personally dislike the bended lines in
        hgtk.

Thus I would like to see a tool featuring the functionality of hgtk and
the visual appearance of hgk.
