Thanks for the reminder. See comments below.

This "exec" call is synchronous, meaning that the gitk process won't
do anything else until the exec call returns. Since git fetch is a
network operation, that could be quite a long time, during which the
GUI will be unresponsive. It would be better to use open rather than
exec, which will return a file descriptor. You would then use filerun
to set up a procedure to be called when the file descriptor is
readable. That way you can arrange for the GUI to continue to respond
while the git fetch is happening.
Also, it may be more useful to do "git fetch --all" rather than just
"git fetch", though I'm not going to insist on that.

Why are you reusing the "About gitk" window here? That doesn't seem
right. Don't you mean "set w .fetch" or similar?

How long can the git fetch output be? If it can be say ten or more
lines you might need to use a text widget and a scrollbar rather than
a message widget.
