FWIW, we also received a user report that this is happening on MacOS,
looks like also related to something wrong with this Wish dependency:

"""
Getting the following error when running git gui command on terminal.

$ git gui

/usr/local/git/git-388133509.245/libexec/git-core/git-gui: line 8:
/usr/local/git/git-388133509.245/share/git-gui/lib/Git Gui.app/Contents/MacOS/Wish: No such file or directory
/usr/local/git/git-388133509.245/libexec/git-core/git-gui: line 8: exec:
/usr/local/git/git-388133509.245/share/git-gui/lib/Git Gui.app/Contents/MacOS/Wish: cannot execute: No such file or directory
"""

Seems like we had this problem with our MacOS release some years ago
too, but I don't see much useful info on that years-old report about how
we fixed it last time...

As for the 'git-bugreport' contents here, I wonder if we should be
including diagnostic infos about git-gui. I'm not very familiar with
git-gui so I'm not sure what would be useful, though...
