I'm not too optimistic on finding someone to run this project. I asked on the list who the maintainer is [0], and no one came up. The repo at [1] also seems abandoned.In the meantime until somebody steps up, I might run my own copy. I need to allocate a block of time to see how stale Pat's tree is (e.g. its mainline may have more commits than what we have pulled, in which case we need to be extra careful---these old commits may be something Pat found dubious and decided to wait before telling me to pull, and we would be better off ignoring them) before I can say anything definite, but I am hoping that there won't be too many patches flowing to the git-gui project; anything high volume and/or tricky tcl/tk would be beyond my capacity as an interim maintainer to maintain the quality of the codebase of it.
Well it turns out that the clone I used a few years ago was still usable X-<, so I made https://github.com/gitster/git-gui/ a tentative and experimental home to pull from. I munged the patch to apply to the git-gui tree, create a topic there, pulled it via subtree strategy to create a topic 'py/git-gui-do-quit' here, and queued the result on 'pu'.
