+NAME
+----
+git-citool - Graphical alternative to git-commit
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+'git citool'
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+A Tcl/Tk based graphical interface to review modified files, stage
+them into the index, enter a commit message and record the new
+commit onto the current branch. This interface is an alternative
+to the less interactive gitlink:git-commit[1] program.
+
+git-citool is actually a standard alias for 'git gui citool'.
+See gitlink:git-gui[1] for more details.

+git-gui(1)
+==========
+
+NAME
+----
+git-gui - A portable graphical interface to Git
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+'git gui' [<command>] [arguments]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+A Tcl/Tk based graphical user interface to Git. git-gui focuses
+on allowing users to make changes to their repository by making
+new commits, amending existing ones, creating branches, performing
+local merges, and fetching/pushing to remote repositories.
+
+Unlike gitlink:gitk[1], git-gui focuses on commit generation
+and single file annotation, and does not show project history.
+It does however supply menu actions to start a gitk session from
+within git-gui.
+
+git-gui is known to work on all popular UNIX systems, Mac OS X,
+and Windows (under both Cygwin and MSYS). To the extent possible
+OS specific user interface guidelines are followed, making git-gui
+a fairly native interface for users.
+
+COMMANDS
+--------
+blame::
+ Start a blame viewer on the specified file on the given
+ version (or working directory if not specified).
+
+browser::
+ Start a tree browser showing all files in the specified
+ commit (or 'HEAD' by default). Files selected through the
+ browser are opened in the blame viewer.
+
+citool::
+ Start git-gui and arrange to make exactly one commit before
+ exiting and returning to the shell. The interface is limited
+ to only commit actions, slightly reducing the application's
+ startup time and simplifying the menubar.
+
+version::
+ Display the currently running version of git-gui.
+
+
+Examples
+--------
+git gui blame Makefile::
+
+ Show the contents of the file 'Makefile' in the current
+ working directory, and provide annotations for both the
+ original author of each line, and who moved the line to its
+ current location. The uncommitted file is annotated, and
+ uncommitted changes (if any) are explicitly attributed to
+ 'Not Yet Committed'.
+
+git gui blame v0.99.8 Makefile::
+
+ Show the contents of 'Makefile' in revision 'v0.99.8'
+ and provide annotations for each line. Unlike the above
+ example the file is read from the object database and not
+ the working directory.
+
+git gui citool::
+
+ Make one commit and return to the shell when it is complete.
+
+git citool::
+
+ Same as 'git gui citool' (above).
+
+git gui browser maint::
+
+ Show a browser for the tree of the 'maint' branch. Files
+ selected in the browser can be viewed with the internal
+ blame viewer.
+
+See Also
+--------
+'gitk(1)'::
+ The git repository browser. Shows branches, commit history
+ and file differences. gitk is the utility started by
+ git-gui's Repository Visualize actions.
+
+Other
+-----
+git-gui is actually maintained as an independent project, but stable
+versions are distributed as part of the Git suite for the convience
+of end users.
+
+A git-gui development repository can be obtained from:
+
+ git clone git://repo.or.cz/git-gui.git
+
+or
+
+ git clone http://repo.or.cz/r/git-gui.git
+
+or browsed online at http://repo.or.cz/w/git-gui.git/[].
