DESCRIPTION

       provides several utilities to manage your repository and commit your work.

       gitg  will  try to load any REPOSITORY passed as command line argument (multiple paths can
       be passed).

       If no repository is specified, gitg will try to  open  the  repository  specified  by  the
       GIT_DIR  environment  variable; if GIT_DIR is not set gitg will try to open the repository
       at the current working directory.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       GIT_DIR
           If the GIT_DIR environment variable is set, and no repositories have  been  passed  as
           command  line  arguments,  then it specifies a path to use instead of the default .git
           for the base of the repository.
