CMD Command for “Git Bash Here”

Question

In Windows I can run \"Git Bash Here\" in the current directory by opening right click menu.

I want to place gitbashhere.bat in default path for commands to have go

Answer 1

How do I check what command is bound to "Git Bash Here"?

1. Open the Registry Editor using regedt32 or regedit.

2. Menu "Edit" > "Find" > "Find what" and enter "git_shell"

3. Examine the returned Registry entries.

4. One will be:

   HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\git_shell\command
   

   With the value:

   "C:\Windows\SysWOW64\cmd.exe" /c "pushd "%1" && "C:\git_install_dir\bin\sh.exe" --login -i"
   

   where git_install_dir is the directory where you have installed git.

   You can see it runs something similar to the following command:

   pushd "%1" && "C:\git_install_dir\bin\sh.exe" --login -i
