While the Git project does distribute Git GUI, we don't distribute any binaries, including for Windows.  I did try your example on my Debian unstable system, and I got a link to https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/ in my preferred web browser.

My guess is that this is just an ordinary packaging bug, and as such should be sent to the Git for Windows project, which distributes the Windows binaries, at their issue tracker:
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues.  I'd suggest that you reach out there after searching first to see if it's already been reported.  I will warn you that the maintainer is busy, as is usual with open source projects, so it may take some time to get fixed.
