Hi,

Will try to implement. But still, NO_GUI should ban the GUI tools from 
being built and installed, because user can have the Tcl/Tk available,

I am not quite certain if I agree. With a similar reasoning, you could 
introduce a flag to prevent pull-request from being installed, and 
git-tag, or other rarely used functions. Is it so bad to have gitk and 
git-gui installed? I mean, you are likely to just try them (and possibly 
like them!) at some stage, because the graphical representation is so much 
clearer than what _any_ text representation can do.

Ciao,
