How to configure the default shell in msys2/mintty?
I updated msys2 recently and found mintty always shows 'Shells (bash)' dialog before it invokes.
It's little bit annoying to click the button every time, how can I suppress this dialog with fixing the default shell?
Mintty version is mintty 2.7.7 (x86_64-pc-msys).
Solution
Try installing the msys2-launcher package with pacman -S msys2-launcher. Then you should have three executables in the MSYS2 installation directory, and you should run the shell using those executables. You can then pin the shell to your Windows taskbar for future launching.
