Use bash from WSL as sh.exe for GitKraken (5.0.4) for Windows

gitkraken-wsl-bash.bat

@echo off
REM Make sure that the path to the script is correct!
@bash -l -c "~/bin/gitkraken-wsl-bash.sh %*"

gitkraken-wsl-bash.sh

#!/bin/bash

# Mount root for windows drives, default is /mnt/ but can be changed in /etc/wsl.conf
MOUNT_ROOT=/mnt/

# Read GitKraken's hook script and arguments from STDIN
read -r GITKRAKEN_CMD

# Cleanup the path to the script:
# - Replace two or more '\' in a row with a single '/'.
# - Replace the windows drive letter (C:) with the mount point for the drive (/mnt/c)
FIXED_CMD=$(echo $GITKRAKEN_CMD | sed 's_\\\{2,\}_/_g' | sed "s_\([A-Z]\)\:/_$MOUNT_ROOT\L\1/_g")

# Run the hook script
bash -c "$FIXED_CMD"

gitkraken-wsl.md

1. Copy gitkraken-wsl-bash.bat and gitkraken-wsl-bash.sh, I put them in ~/bin.
2. Make sure that the script path in the bat-file and MOUNT_ROOT in the sh-file are correct.
3. Set gitkraken-wsl-bash.bat as 'Path to sh.exe' in GitKraken.

@Ridder90 how did you make wslgit work with GitKraken?

If someone found out how to make wslgit work with GitKraken, please let me know.

This does not work for new versions of gitkraken.

In windows 11 you can just run the Linux version.

On windows 10 I used this
https://opticos.github.io/gwsl/

It actually works fine for me on Windows 11 with latest GitKraken.
I've tried a lot of xservers previously and also tried wslg. It looks promising but still has too many issues. I am going with this workaround for now.

@DAmNRelentless how did you get this to work with later versions of gitkraken?
I thought they used an internal git implementation instead of external commands?

I put both files into the same directory, adjusted the path in the gitkraken-wsl-bash.bat and set my GitKraken path for the sh.exe to this batch file.
