I have recently installed git: v1.5.6.1-167-gbf270ab and git gui: gitgui-0.10.2-8-g2add5cb

>From Git Gui we try to run Visualize Branch History and get the
following error:

Unable to start gitk: c:/cygwin/usr/local/git/libexec/git-core/gitk does not exist

I presume this was just an oversight when git- commands were removed from the bin directory.
