Cool.

I think it is not a big deal for git-gui which is for active
developers and not primarily for archaeologists, but it does not
seem to like to be invoked inside a bare repository.

Also it becomes very tempting to somehow have this "file
browser" selection UI as "tree browser" that can wander around
to view an arbitrary tree in the commit history.  The boundary
between git-gui and gitk would start to blurrrrrr.....
