I don't use git gui much, I mainly prefer the command line or magit or GitX, but git gui might be useful sometimes, especially with the OpenInGitGui Finder extension.
When installed, git gui by default doesn't work (at least on my Macbook running Leopard); and fails with the message:
dyld: Library not loaded: /Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/Versions/8.5/Tk Referenced from: /usr/local/git/share/git-gui/lib/Git Gui.app/Contents/MacOS/Wish Reason: image not found error: git-gui died of signal 5
Clearly, the Tk framework 8.5 is missing and can be downloaded from here. (Also see here) Once that is installed, everything works properly.
