It's not an "also", it's the reason _why_ Emacs spins.  I think it's a
race condition: git-gui.exe is a GUI program, so it releases the shell
and the shell exits before Emacs has a chance to set up the machinery
which watches the sub-process.

Of course, invoking a program such as git-gui asynchronously makes
very little sense anyway...
