Cmder: Cmder - Warning: Missing git support

Created on 18 Jan 2016 · 6Comments · Source: cmderdev/cmder

Whenever I use PowerShell with Cmder on windows 10 I get this error:
"WARNING: Missing git support, install posh-git with 'Install-Module posh-git' and restart cmder
So what's the problem here?

For anyone coming to this later, don't lose hope. See issue #1345. Basically, try running Update-Module posh-git and then restart Cmder.

This issue was high in Google's results, but the linked issue was not.

Have you tried running what it says to run?

It's an obnoxious message if I don't feel like installing that module.
It definitely doesn't need to be displayed on every line.

@chrisxaustin This module is an integral part of Cmder Powershell sessions, if you don't like or want ot the don't run a Cmder Powershell session.

Just create a new Powershell task that does not use Cmder's profile.ps1 to configure the session.
