Actually, it looks like there is only one; patch is below. There are a few false positives in gitk.txt, but they point to projects outside of core git (like qgit, gitview, and tig), and so must be left as straight text.

Even though git-gui and gitk are both maintained separately,
the documentation is part of core git, and thus it makes
sense to use the linkgit macro to create an href in the HTML
documentation.
