Indeed.  The git-gui options dialog lets you select this value,
but you can't get into git-gui far enough to open that dialog.

As far as documenting the git-gui options, maybe they should go into
either Documentation/git-gui.txt or into Documentation/config.txt
in the main git.git project.  The latter almost makes sense because
git-gui does store its preferences in the same config file, and that
file describes the valid keys and what they mean.
