Hi
I hope this is the right place for this kind of issue :-)
I've just had git-gui crash on me when I tried to enter the ~ (tilde)
character on my Mac mini under OS X 10.6.8 (with the native Tcl 8.5.7):

I use the Swiss German keyboard layout where the tilde is a dead key
on Fn+n. Other dead keys like ¨, ´ and ` also cause the crash. It does
not matter whether the dead key is the last one in the text widget or not.

A fix for this bug has just been committed, but it won't be available on

Snow Leopard until ActiveState releases the next version of ActiveTcl.
The built-in version won't be updated, so you'll have to install
ActiveTcl (or build your own version of Tcl/Tk from the next release) to
get the fix.
