Cmder: "Cmder Here" menu context item doesn't work for git bash.

Created on 3 Nov 2017 · 7Comments · Source: cmderdev/cmder

When opening Cmder at current folder using the context menu, if the startup task is Git Bash, the new console will open at Home dir.

Default bash task:

cmd /c "%ConEmuDir%\..\git-for-windows\bin\bash" --login -i -new_console:d:%USERPROFILE%

Expected behavior:
Bash is open in current folder.

Just add if [ -n "$CMDER_START" ]; then cd ${CMDER_START} ; fi in your bashrc.
This code check the CMDER_START env, and go to the directory cmder opened.

For example, I use git bash, so I add it at the end of C:\Program Files\Git\etc\bash.bashrc

Thanks @relzhong.
Could be nice to add a documentation for that in the Readme.

This should work out of the box without fiddling with C:\Program Files\Git\etc\bash.bashrc. The shell extension is registered with "C:\cmder\Cmder.exe" "%V" and this should be honored
