This includes (ignore me if this has been discussed already) The first sentence looks overly repeticious (it just looks to me as if saying "Git GUI is a Git GUI written in Tcl/Tk"). Saying Git GUI allows you to use the [Git source control management tools](https://git-scm.com/) via a GUI and is written in Tcl/Tk. This includes ... may reduce the repetition somewhat. Also if I were writing this intro, I'd move "writtein in Tcl/Tk" to a lot later or perhaps just drop the phrase from here; what the users can gain from the tool is much more important to the readers of this document than its implementation detail.

The users need to know (1) they need to know Tcl/Tk to hack on it, and (2) they need to install "wish" as a prerequisite to run it. Does the document mention the latter explicitly? If it does not, it probably should. Also it helps to have msgfmt installed when building git-gui. That also should be mentioned.
