What did you do before the bug happened? (Steps to reproduce your issue) Use Wayland start "git gui"

What did you expect to happen? (Expected behavior) The Graphical Git user interface

What happened instead? (Actual behavior) System completely locks up

What's different between what you expected and what actually happened? The locked up system

Anything else you want to add: The problem is intermittant, but when it happens, it's a really bad lock-up that can only be resolved with a cold reset

Please review the rest of the bug report below. You can delete any lines you don't wish to share.
