git gui often freezes on Ubuntu 18.04. I can reproduce the problem by launching the gui several times. If I press the "ctrl" key then the gui becomes visible.

Collected information.

env | grep -i git GIT_EDITOR=nano

# Strace up to freeze. sudo strace -p 568 strace: Process 568 attached wait4(572,

#Verbose output does not provide more information sudo strace -v -p 1991 strace: Process 1991 attached wait4(2003,
