If ~/.config/git/gitk doesn't exist, I get small fonts (fine) and ugly
hard-to-read dark green branch labels.

The fix for the dark green problem is here:

     http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26025810/gtk-apps-show-green-too-dark

But after doing:

      echo 'set headbgcolor lime' >~/.config/git/gitk ; gitk

I end up with a much more extensive ~/.config/git/gitk that changes
fonts, window geometry, etc. to be different than the defaults that
you get if you don't have ~/.config/git/gik.  This is weird.

It should work one of these ways:

     1.  Any setting in ~/.config/git/gitk override the defaults, but
the file is not required, and running gitk doesn't create it or change
with it's contents.

     2.  ~/.config/git/gitk is always created if it doesn't exist or
isn't fully populated, and it gets the default values for anything not
defined.

The full ~/.config/git/gitk that gets created for me is below.  I
don't know where the setting that get used if it doesn't exist come
from.
