I can't get any file history to be displayed using git extensions 2.28 / msysgit 1.7.8 across multiple Windows 7 x64 machines, including those freshly installed by the full installer.

On some repositories I just see a red circle with a white cross, on others I get an "System.ApplicationException: Error running command:' with a long git log command which I would copy and paste if that was easily achievable from the modal dialog.

I have found the log will work on some individual files and directories, but seems to fail across a range of repositories.
