Yea, we don't have a UI to let you set what language the UI should
appear in.  Partly because once the UI is up we'd have to restart
the entire process to change the strings its using.  And partly
because nobody has asked for this before.

I think that if you set LANG=en before you start git-gui it will
take on English, and so will all of the standard dialogs that we
"borrow" from wish.
