Command-line Git on Windows
As @birryree said, add msysgit's binary to your PATH, or use Git Bash (installed with msysgit as far as I remember) which is better than Windows' console and similar to the Unix one.
I had the same issue and resolved it by adding the /bin
directory location to the PATH Environment Variable.
Search for the file location where Git was installed, mine is
C:\Users\(My UserName)\AppData\Local\GitHub
. It may also beC:\Program Files (x86)\Git
Once you have the location of Git you should see a
/bin
sub-folder. It may be in a PortableGit folder (mine isPortableGit_015aa71ef18c047ce8509ffb2f9e4bb0e3e73f13
). Copy this path.Go to Control Panel > System > System Protection > Advanced > Environment Variables
Choose PATH, click edit and paste the bin path there. If there are already any values in your PATH paste your Git path at the end separated with a semi-colon.
Now you can access Git command from CMD.
