Hi!

When running on Windows XP (no matter which language of the OS I had installed), git-gui and gitk (msys) would show up in the language I had set up as my primary language in the Control Panel (Swedish).

I am now running Git on the Windows 7 RC, and I cannot get it to work, I get English in all cases. I have set all locale settings in the Control Panel to Swedish, and even installed the Swedish Display Language Pack and set the OS language to Swedish.

Does anyone know if there is something else I need to do to get git-gui/gitk to display in Swedish?
