I agree.

I'm happy to make changes in git-gui to help users who are trying
to use Git without Cygwin, and are on Windows.  Patches would be
even more welcome of course.  ;-)

Most of git-gui tries to stay away from shell scripts, partly for
this reason, and partly because its Porcelain and shouldn't depend
on the stock Porcelain-ish that comes with Git.  Oh, and shell
scripts on Cygwin aren't speed-demons.  :-)
