Re: [PATCH] git-gui - use git-hook, honor core.hooksPath

In the past, git-gui has tried to keep backward compatibility with all
versions of Git, not just the latest ones. v2.36 is relatively new and
this code would not work for anyone using an older version of Git.

I have largely followed this practice for all the code I have written
but I am not sure if it is a good idea to insist on it -- especially if
it would end up adding some more complexity. I would be interested to
hear what other people think about this.

Good point.

Junio, I was under the impression that I would keep maintaining the tree
until we found a replacement maintainer. If you are okay with being the
interim maintainer, that sounds good to me. Let me know what works best.

I am actually not OK ;-).

I prefer to see somebody who does use git-gui, or at least somebody
who uses Git in a graphical environment in their daily work, to be
maintaining it.  I am disqualified on both counts.

I have applied another patch since my last pull request. So I can apply
this one, send you a new one and sync our trees.

OK.  I'll drop the copy I have on my end when it happens, then.

Thanks.
