+	Improving upstream utilities (gitk, git-gui, git-po)
+	- gitk, git-gui, and git-po are maintained upstream of Git
+	  despite being included in Git's git repository
+	- Patches should be made against the upstream gui repository,
+	  and not against the version in Git's git repository
+	- The resulting patch should still be emailed for review
+	  to the git mailing list (git@vger.kernel.org), cc'ing the
+	  applicable gui maintainer
+	- Please see the MAINTAINER's file for the gui maintainer's contact
+	  information and canonical repository location
