Thanks for the report!  I'd initially thought this was a similar
situation to previous complaints about gitk not including xorg-server as
a dependency (which per [0] is correct if regularly confusing).  However
looking at xterm it appears the convention is to require
font-adobe-dpi75 even while xorg-server isn't a requirement.

[0]: https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2012-02/msg00602.html

I'm not particularly familiar with the maze of X-related dependencies,
but unless someone points out some reason not to, I'll add
font-adobe-dpi75 as a requirement for gitk (and probably git-gui, but
I'll check if that's necessary) with the next Git build.  That should
appear in the next couple of days, barring any unforseen problems.

Adam
