From 2c4557ec8b6639afefe10c8afcc7c29d73d98c2e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Klaeger Date: Sun, 18 Oct 2015 22:31:36 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] git-gui (Windows): use git-bash.exe if it is available MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Git for Windows 2.x ships with an executable that starts the Git Bash with all the environment variables and what not properly set up. It is also adjusted according to the Terminal emulator option chosen when installing Git for Windows (while `bash.exe --login -i` would always launch with Windows' default console). So let's use that executable (usually C:\Program Files\Git\git-bash.exe) instead of `bash.exe --login -i` if its presence was detected.
