How do I open the Git GUI from a command window?

How do I open the Git GUI from a command window? I'm using Windows 7. I've tried running this:

"C:\Apps\Git\libexec\git-core\git-gui"

but that's not a windows script. When I right-click on a folder, I see an option that says, "Git GUI Here". When I click on that, the Git GUI opens up. I want to do the same thing from a command line.

How do I open a git repository in cmd?

From GitExtension, open your repository, then you can open git bash and do what you want. Or, start git bash, then cd to the directory where your code is (at the top level), but, I find it easier to just start with GitExtension so I don't have to think about what I had typed as the top of my src.
