title: Combining mingw and git
body: <p>I have installation of <strong>MinGW</strong> in D:\mingw. I have <strong>Git</strong> installation in C:\Program Files\git. I want to develop/compile using MinGW and use git for versioning.</p>
  
  <p>I guess I have to use correct paths but some paths are hardcoded. Like msys mount script calls /bin/msysmnt.exe</p>
  
  <p>So I have 2 options:
  1. use git's shell (to be able to show me branch at prompt)
  2. use mingw(msys)'s shell - to have correct paths</p>
  
  <p>Whichever I choose I must make the other functionality work under it.</p>
