Well, the design is a bit strange. git-gui.sh happens to be _both_ a
shell script and a Tcl script.

Ah, I see -- I had managed to convince myself that they were different
files, but never actually diffed them. In my installation, I have a
file "C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\libexec\git-core\git-gui.tcl" and
that _is_ the same file as git-gui.sh in the repository. So maybe it's
Windows-specific, maybe not, I'm not sure, but at some point it gets
renamed from git-gui.sh to git-gui.tcl. I incorrectly assumed that the
.tcl file didn't have all the facets of the .sh file. :-P

Thanks,
