…er 'super controller', and the only place these objects are ever created is within the PBGitWindowController...which contains a strong, owning reference to these objects creating a retain cycle.
…ts by breaking a retain cycle between the PBGitHistoryList and its internal PBGitHistoryGrapher. The grapher maintained a strong reference to it's "delegate", but is only ever owned by the same object. Make the "delegate" a weak reference. The two places it's used, create a strong reference while it's used. Finally, -[PBGitRepository close] calls -[PBGitHistoryList cleanup] but so does -[PBGitHistoryList dealloc]. Avoid an uncaught exception/crash by nil-ing out the currentRevList after we've cleaned up as it's no longer valid.
means many more objects are getting released at the proper time.

Side note, make sure that you're not weak-ing things that can't be weak — we have been bit by |

I already fixed all those leaks and cycles about two years ago: #224 |

Closing a repository's window doesn't return any memory to the system. It looks like there's retain cycles everywhere.
This branch doesn't yet eliminate all leaks but fixes some big ones.
