Set up git bash to work with tabs on windows

console2, git-bash

Solution

I've got this working with ConEmu instead. http://sourceforge.net/projects/conemu/

- Install Git Bash

- Install ConEmu

- Open ConEmu, in settings (top right corner), click "settings"

- In the settings tree, open "startup", then "tasks"

- Add a new task, or edit one of the existing ones

- click on the "tab" button in second row from bottom

- in the first box, enter "[git directory]\bin\sh.exe --login -s"

- in the second box, enter your preferred startup directory

- save

- now assign a hotkey (top right corner) (I have mine on ctrl+T)

- You're done! Now you have a multitabbed console in windows, where you can create any number of Git Bash windows via a hotkey.

Problem

I have installed console2 and git bash, my goal is to make git bash working with tabs , I have changed the target path on console setting to `"C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\sh.exe" --login -i`. When I open console it doesn't give me option for tabs anymore.
