The command gitk --max-count=${100} --all is used to launch the Git repository visualization tool gitk and specify some options.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • gitk is the command to launch the Git repository visualization tool (gitk).
  • --max-count=${100} is an option that specifies the maximum number of commits to display in the Gitk UI. In this case, it sets the maximum count to 100.
  • --all is an option that tells gitk to display all branches and tags in the repository history.

Overall, this command instructs gitk to launch and show a visualization of the Git repository's commit history with a maximum count of 100 commits while displaying all branches and tags.
