I replied a little hastily; it's not that straight-forward.

Unlike copying from the SHA1 ID and Find fields, cntl-c
cannot be used to copy to the clipboard from this pane.

In Windows you have to press enter.

In gitk running under ubuntu even this does not work.  The field
to be copied can be highlighted but I can't find any way of
copying it to the clipboard.  How do you do it, John?
