It looks like you called `git gui` from your home directory.
That is unusual - is your entire home directory a git repo?
If not, what happens when you call git gui from inside an existing git repo?

That stack trace is mostly empty, no frames to see inside.
Looks like it crashed early, or something went wrong
with writing the stack trace itself.

Recently, I had an issue with Cygwin git, too. It was triggered
by an outdated /etc/passwd file. If you have one, try renaming
that temporarily, start a new Cygwin session and see if that helps.
