I really really prefer gitk in the core, even if it means that there's that strange tcl/tk dependency.

It's very small, and having something that visualizes what git does for people who don't understand git is _invaluable_.

It wouldn't have to be gitk, but that's the least pain right now. qgit needs QT, which is much more contentious than tcl/tk.
