Oooh, cool! I gotta try this out at my university and see if it works, if it does we can tell the sysadmis to remove TortoiseGit and install Git-Cheetah instead :D.

I remember from reading a thread about this (I think) a while ago that the default themed widget was the usual tcl/tk stuff, what do I have to do to get a different theme? Perhaps even, dare I say it, a native windows look?

Thank you for all the hard work Dscho, keep it up!

Thank you to the people working on msysgit as well, it looks like the day is coming fast that I can say "Git on windows? It Just Works (TM)" :).
