Whenever I program, I spend most of time in the GitBash instead of having tons of other tools. I love simplicity. But JetBrain's Integrated Terminal defaults to Windows' age-old CMD. Let's change it right away.

## Get it going


1. Go to `File -> Settings -> Tools -> Terminal`.
2. Enter the small snippet in your `Shell Path` to see the magic.
```bash
"C:\Program Files\Git\bin\sh.exe" --login -i
```
3. Swoosh! You are done.

If your GitBash is installed somewhere else, you can replace the path. Just make sure you direct it correctly to `sh.exe` 😃
