From 0b81261622afad691501ee51d7811048cf4a5fce Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: git-gui: Always use absolute path to all git executables

Rather than making the C library search for git every time we want
to execute it we now search for the main git wrapper at startup, do
symlink resolution, and then always use the absolute path that we
found to execute the binary later on.  This should save us some
cycles, especially on stat challenged systems like Cygwin/Win32.

While I was working on this change I also converted all of our
existing pipes ([open "| git ..."]) to use two new pipe wrapper
functions.  These functions take additional options like --nice
and --stderr which instructs Tcl to take special action, like
running the underlying git program through `nice` (if available)
or redirect stderr to stdout for capture in Tcl.
