A bundle on its own doesn't even have all the information. It's not a 
collection of patches. It's literally an offline version of the git 
synchronization protocol, so it's delta-compressed against the repository 
etc, and a bundle on its own will not make sense.

So you have to do

    git fetch bundle

to integrate it into the repository and give it all the context it needs 
to make sense. Then "gitk ..FETCH_HEAD" etc will work, and all the normal 
git tools to look at patches.
