When you install Git for Windows, there is an “Enable experimental support for pseudo consoles” checkbox.
How to check whether it is actually enabled after installation, and enable it if it is not? – without reinstalling Git
This is actually configured in /etc/git-bash.config
. Either open the file from within git-bash (e.g. using vim), or locate it on your file system (C:\Program Files\Git\etc\git-bash.config
).
You must simply set
MSYS=enable_pcon
Then it will be available in new git-bash instances.
