For whatever it's worth, I've written a PyQt4-based git gui.  For lack
of a better name I call it ugit, as in "I git, you git, we all git
with ugit" (or something silly like that).

Though there's still a few things remaining to be implemented, the
bulk of the initial groundwork is already done.  All you need to
build/run it is python and pyqt4 (pyuic4).  I've deliberately tried to
keep the interface similar to git-gui for now since it is obviously
based on it, but that's not a requirement.

Of course there are some notable things missing (such as proper i18n),
but it's not too bad for a first draft.

For more details (and the code) see:

Enjoy,
