#git-bash Portal

Git Bash is a Windows command-⁠line shell that is packaged with Git for Windows. It uses Minimal SYStem 2 (MSYS2) and Minimalist GNU for Windows (MinGW) to emulate the bash shell that is familiar to nix-⁠nux users. It’s sometimes called “MSYS bash” or “bash on MSYS.”

‼
Git Bash is entirely different from the Linux git and Linux bash that are part of WSL (Windows' Subsystem for Linux).
