All I meant is that it is not an alias for "git gui" but for
"git gui citool".  I can imagine a person reading git(1) and
learning about the ability to say

	git citool

though I guess by the same token a person might wonder why
the list does not include similar

	git blametool

and

	git browsertool

commands.  Anyway, I have nothing against a separate "aliases" category.
Sorry for the noise.
