Hi, git-gui does not get along with the creativeness in git
versioning:

What version of git-gui?  gitgui-0.7.5-67-g91464df and later have
fixes to handle all of the fun cases in git versioning.  Like the
one you have here.

git-gui
Error in startup script: expected version number but got "1.5.3.rc2.4.g726f9-dirty"
    while executing
"package vcompare $_git_version $vr"

The one coming with the mentioned version number.  I suspect that this
may be a matter of the Perl libraries being used: I experience this on
an Ubuntu Dapper, but not on other (newer) systems compiled from the
same source.
