qgit does not respect KDE color theme

[deric]

Binary package hint: qgit

When using black oxygen theme in KDE 4.5.1 (black background) some texts are invisible - branches label, tags, tree symbol (qgit 2.3)

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

I also just encountered this same issue, using a dark KDE theme, where the text colour is therefore light. Branches are particularly troublesome, being white on a yellow background, tags are barely visible on the bright green background.

KDE has several text colours/backgrounds in the themes for different circumstances, just for that reason. Is it hard to somehow access/leverage that?
