I have a quick little feature to add to git-gui, and I'm wondering where

I can see that would point me in the right direction. Googling around
didn't get me anything either.
Should I send it here on this list or is it somewhere else?
It seems to me that people have been sending patches to git-gui to
this mailing list indeed.
All right, I'll send it here.
According to the following discussions:
- https://public-inbox.org/git/xmqqbm36w7hl.fsf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
- https://public-inbox.org/git/nycvar.QRO.7.76.6.1905272135280.28524@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
Pat Thoyts (in CC) used to be the git-gui maintainer but we haven't
been hearing from him for a long time, so we are looking for a new
maintainer.
Ah, that's too bad that there is no active maintainer. I recently
switched my text editor from Atom to Vim, and the only thing I am
missing is Atom's gui for looking at diffs and resolving merge
conflicts. I've only used git-gui for a couple days, but it looks like
just the tool I need.
I can maintain it (as long as I'm using the tool at least). I'm not
particularly fluent with Tcl or Tk, but I'm learning them as I implement
the features I need.
Will I get commit access to the main git repo, or should I use a fork
and send the changes over here, and one of you folks will merge them?
Also, is the project even actively maintained any more? The last commit
was in 2017.
