These days, unlike back when the original of this manpage was
written, we can expect far more people know Git, GitHub and what to
do with it when they see a GitHub URL to a repository.  Hence, a
single GitHub repository URL is sufficient, without "git clone" or
mention of "browsed online", I would think.

IOW, all of the above can now be just two lines, e.g.

	The official repository of `git gui` project can be found at
	https://github.com/prati0100/git-gui.git/

Thanks.

Changes in v2:
- Only link the repo, instead of having instructions to "clone" and
  "browse online".

Do note that I am using single quotes around git gui instead of
backticks like you suggested because the rest of the man page does the
same.
