One of my goals for git-gui is to get it merged into core Git, so there is a GUI tool available out-of-the-box for commit creation, (some) branch manipulation, basic merging, and pushing/fetching changes. I'm wondering, should that start to occur as part of 1.5.0? Its one .sh script, like gitk. :)
I have recently moved a project involving multiple companies developing on Windows and Linux from cvs(nt) over to git. The availability of git-gui at the time was an important point: many folks working this project simply will not work at the command line. We are still spinning up on git, but several of the developers are relying upon git-gui now and I expect that most will use it. So, I am definitely for moving git-gui into git. It definitely fits well with the 1.5 usability theme.
Side note: with my gitk fix for Cygwin now in master, git-gui should not be deleting ~/.gitk on Cygwin anymore.
