Git Bash for Windows showing/expecting file paths with forward-slashes, no drive colon -
i installed git extensions automatically downloaded , installed git windows, , when use git bash, shows file path /c/whatever/folder rather c:\whatever\folder, , if paste in path windows explorer, chokes on because it's expecting forward-slashes , no colon after drive letter.
when installed git windows previously, showed slashes/colon properly, more limiting , harder use (especially copy/paste).
why showing/expecting file paths slashes , no colon, , how fix it?!
you try adding single quotes in directory path copied windows explorer , pasted in terminal prompt (e.g. cd 'd:\documents\developer tools & docs'). worked me. check out solution posted in following link: escaping backslash in windows paths passed unix programs
