Why is "git grep" behaving erratic on my Windows PC?
git, git-bash, github, grep, windows
Solution
I was wondering about this also after installing git and running git bash. It seems "git grep" pipes commands through "less".
Solution: Just type q.
Problem
I'm using Github and `Git bash` on my Windows PC (running `XP`). On Ubuuntu I'm happyily using `git grep` to plough through my code, but every time I call something like: ``` git grep "some text in my repo" ``` on Windows I get the results and afterwards I'm stuck with the bash window showing all kind of things `[END], ~, [RETURN]...` whenever I try to enter something. Question: What else besides `CTRL+R, CTRL+Q, FN+END, Q, ESC` can I try to not having to force-close and reopen git:bash in order to continue to work. Thanks! EDIT: This is what I mean: As soon as I start typing, the [END] string re-appears (or 50 lines `~`) and I cannot write any command on Git, because whatever is in the way swallows half of what I'm typing.... nice description...
