It can run `git gui version` and check to see that it is >= 0.7.3.

I'm actually not sure we want to apply this patch, hence the RFC
prefix I put on it.  Jakub suggested it, this crude implementation
was easy enough to hack together, so I posted a patch for someone
to play with if they were so inclined.

Maybe we should just put a link in the git-blame manual page to
the git-gui manual page:
