Git (for Bash)

I often write small Bash scripts to run automated tasks.

The Git installer comes with a nice Bash integration for Windows, so that's what I use to install Bash easily.

If you plan to use some scripts that are written in Bash, follow the instructions below to install Git, which will also install Bash.
