I'm far from an authority on things TCL, but I don't think this patch
should be merged as is. Julian is reporting it as a "fixes my symptom"
patch, and that's barely what it does.

The regex should be more liberal, imho. With this superficial fix:

 - Builds from a dirty tree have a broken git gui

 - Builds from a repo with a nonstandard (local) tagname tagname  have
a broken git gui

cheers,
