This looks like a broken deployment for whatever that git-388133509.245 version might be coming from; `git gui` works for me in macOS and the application builds/install fine when doing `make install`.

that "missing" file should point to the system wish binary (alternatively accessed through /usr/bin/wish) in:

  /System/Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/Versions/8.5/Resources/Wish.app/Contents/MacOS/Wish
