Android Studio: How to integrate Git from Windows 10 Ubuntu bash?

Question

Yesterday I installed bash on Windows 10 and also installed Git on it. It works perfectly fine. Following that, I changed the path of the Terminal in Android Studio from "cmd.exe" to "bash.exe" so I can have the bash shell instead of the cmd shell. But now Android Studio cannot find Git (because on Windows it expects a Git.exe) and I would like to know if it is possible to integrate the bash git into Android Studio (just as it does with the Windows .exe version).

Answer 1

According to this article you are running a kind-of version of Linux. The article says it is a Windows Subsystem for Linux which is like the opposite of Wine .

Because of this, you might have more success trying to install the Linux version of everything from the bash shell - including Android Studio.

This way you will not be mixing and matching two System Environments more than what you already have.

Answer 2

Try GitWrap https://github.com/ardevd/gitwrap/releases

This wrapper pipes output from WSL to windows and also works on android studio claimed by the developer
