Ultimately the right way to address this issue is to fix it in Tk, please
report this in the Tk bug tracker if you haven't already, a quick glance
in the debugger shows a hang in recursive event loop invocation such as
used by tk_dialog when called from a menu accelerator callback.

I finally got around to this now.  It was already reported as issue
3044863; I added a comment to the existing ticket.

I still think we need a work-around in git gui (and maybe gitk) until a
fixed Tk version is widely available. Yesterday I showed git to a
co-worker, and after 20 minutes of randomly playing around with it he
ran into the problem (without me pointing him to it).
