This I just did (haven't pushed out the results, which will happen
after today's regular integration cycle in the afternoon US/Pacific
time).

Thanks.

Yeah, they may be of value, but the thing is, I am not really in the
position to review or apply them (I don't do git-gui).

If Pat is not going to return, we would need to find volunteers to
be maintainers of "git-gui" first.

Thanks.  I may get to these patches when/if I find time, but it is
not likely to happen very soon.

Hi Junio Hamano,

I have sent some git-gui patches on May this year and I think it will
add value to accepted them at some point:

git-gui: i18n stuff and small fixes

There is the gitk Portuguese translation also, but that is out of the
topic. For reference:

Thank you.

Yes, that was my thinking, though I'd prefer to see somebodyto be
acting as a central point of contact so that I do not have to pay
any attention to the part of the system other than responding to a
pull request.  The subsystem maintainer does not have to forever be
Pat, of course, and can be handed over to somebody else, but if that
is what is going to happen, I'd prefer to see a volunteer or two to
step up and Pat to bless them.

Indeed. There are a couple of git-gui patches in Git for Windows that have
been contributed a long time ago and not been picked up.

Maybe it is time to just accept git-gui patches directly into Git, after
some other Tcl/Tk savvy people ACKed them?

Ciao,
