Re: [INFO] Does Git GUI support Dark Mode on Windows 10 ?

I forgot to mention that we also have an alternative.

We can completely ditch C++ idea here and instead remove the native
title bar or border that the Window Manager gives and instead draw our
own title bar in Tcl/Tk. But that means rewriting the menu system.

So, I'm waiting for the decision of Pratyush Yadav here.
Regarding GUI toolkit, you should pick the replacement carefully -
tooling used in Git for Windows will need to be adapted in order to
compile your chosen toolkit (whether it is Qt, GTK, or wxWidgets) for
Windows.
No, I'm not choosing a toolkit. Whatever I will do, it will be in
native C++ without any other toolkit. It might be a little hard, but
it is better than including another whole library in here. Lightweight
is a reason I chose Git GUI and I will make sure that my contribution
does not make that go.
CC also Johannes Schindelin for comments.
