Where is git command after installing "GitHub for Windows"?

103 views Asked by At

After installing GitHub for Windows, I can use git command in Powershell directly:

C:\Users\xiaona\Documents\GitHub> git
usage: git [--version] [--help] [-C <path>] [-c name=value]
           [--exec-path[=<path>]] [--html-path] [--man-path] [--info-path]
           [-p|--paginate|--no-pager] [--no-replace-objects] [--bare]
           [--git-dir=<path>] [--work-tree=<path>] [--namespace=<name>]
           <command> [<args>]

The most commonly used git commands are:
   add        Add file contents to the index
   bisect     Find by binary search the change that introduced a bug
......

But where is the git command installed? I can't find it in C:\Program Files or C:\Program Files (x86).

After checking, it should under:

%LocalAppData%\GitHub

For example, in my PC, it is:

C:\Users\xiaona\AppData\Local\GitHub\PortableGit_c2ba306e536fdf878271f7fe636a147ff37326ad\bin
