[PATCH v2] doc/gitk: update reference to the external project

From: Johannes Sixt <j6t@kdbg.org>
Date: Aug 20, 2025, 06:16 UTC
Message-ID: <249056e7-1332-4e6f-8d07-16c80fd4913e@kdbg.org>
In-Reply-To: <77fd0332-cc46-44b5-bbf2-94f326d5d754@kdbg.org>

Gitk is now maintained by Johannes Sixt and the repository can be cloned from a new URL. b59358100c20 (Update the official repo of gitk, 2024-12-24) could have updated this instance in the manual, too, but the opportunity was missed. Update it now. Do give credit to Paul Mackerras as the inventor of the program.

 I just noticed that I would have removed the last user-visible
 mention of Paul. Don't do that.
