Setting up Cmder to use bash by default

cmder.md

Set up cmder to use msysgit / bash by default

• Install cmder_mini (msysgit is already installed, so no need for full version)
• In Cmder, open settings: Win + Alt + P
• Under Startup > Tasks, add a task called {bash} with the following settings:
  • Task parameters (set icon):
    • For Cmder icon: /icon "%CMDER_ROOT%\cmder.exe"
    • For Git icon: /icon "C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\etc\git.ico"
  • Commands (open Git's bash shell):
    • "C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\sh.exe" -l -new_console:d:%USERPROFILE%
• Under Startup, set startup options to Specified name task --> {bash}

Thank you! worked for me @daevski

In v190331, under Startup/Tasks, there is an option "Add/refresh default tasks" which will re-check the installed shells and add the Bash entry automatically.

But, for me, Git Bash was already found (at no.7).

Thank you! Worked for me \o/ @daevski
