That was a bad merge of git-gui on my part. I thought it was fixed. It only happened in next, and was there only for a day before someone pointed it out to me, and I fixed it in the tree.

FWIW, "git mv lib/remote_add.tcl git-gui/lib" is all you need to fix it. There's nothing special about the subtree merge.
