It indeed does.

I've played a patch-monkey in the past for git-gui and have a few
topics queued still in my tree, but that serves merely as a bookmark
that is slightly better than a pointer to the mailing list archive.

We need a volunteer to take over this part of the subsystem;
somebody who actually uses it, passionate about improving it, and
can speak tcl/tk somewhat fluently (I qualify none of these three
criteria myself).

Any takers?
