Why not use the even shorter gitk --reflog?

@herrmanthegerman thanks! I didn't know it exists.

It is not even on the gitk man page:
https://git-scm.com/docs/gitk/

so IMHO it is normal nobody know a command if there are no documentation about it.

Thank you very much!

@mercuriete The gitk man page you linked to does mention this

To control which revisions to show, gitk supports most options applicable to the git rev-list command.

And the git rev-list man page documents --reflog and many other options.
