Recently, I want to integrate git hook into my project written in C++. But the most git hook scripts except framework like pre-commit or husky are needed to run on Unix-like system.

Moreover, our team mainly develop on platform mainly on Windows. In order to let git hook scripts work smoothly and painlessly in the teams. I try to integrate bash used by git-windows and visual studio to make scripts work on Windows

Required Install

1. Visual Studio

2. Git on Windows , for I install git before install Visual Studio, I am not sure that install git-on-windows via Extension Manager whether auto-integrate or not

Steps

1. In VS2019, function tab: Tools > Options

   

2. Then under Environments > Terminal

   

3. Add a profile "bash" for example, fill Name field and Shell location where you install Git. Usually install git

4. On whole PC, the path is "C:\Program Files\Git\bin\bash.exe", and there is also sh.exe you can choose

5. After Click Apply and OK buttons, you could see there is a bash profile on the view of terminal(Ctrl-`) you can call to run a bash terminal in Visual Studio. Basically, as long as you open the repo or directory with Visual Studio, the terminal will cd to the path of this repo in default.
