title: Can't run python in git terminal?
body: <p>I have python 3.6 installed on my Win7 system and am trying to get it working in the git bash (MINGW64), so far to no avail.</p>
  
  <p>I've added the install directory (NOT the .exe, of course) to PATH, with no results.</p>
  
  <p>Even if I directly <code>cd</code> to the install directory, it doesn't see it.</p>
  
  <pre><code>$ python
  bash: python: command not found
  $ echo $PATH
  /c/Users/Aerovistae/bin:/mingw64/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/mingw64/bin:/usr/bin:/c/Users/Aerovistae/bin:/c/Windows/system32:/c/Windows:/c/Windows/System32/Wbem:/c/Windows/System32/WindowsPowerShell/v1.0:/c/Program Files/Intel/WiFi/bin:/c/Program Files/Common Files/Intel/WirelessCommon:/cmd:/c/Program Files (x86)/Skype/Phone:/c/Program Files/Intel/WiFi/bin:/c/Program Files/Common Files/Intel/WirelessCommon: C:/Users/Aerovistae/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python36-32:/usr/bin/vendor_perl:/usr/bin/core_perl
  $ cd C:/Users/Aerovistae/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python36-32
  $ python
  bash: python: command not found
  $ python.exe
  bash: python.exe: command not found
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>If I try <code>./python</code> from inside that directory, it just goes to the next line when I hit enter, and allows me to keep typing because it's expecting more to the command for some reason. <code>./python</code> isn't being recognized as a complete command, and it is waiting for closure, as if I had an open-quote but no close-quote. Can't figure out why.</p>
  
  <p>What am I missing here? Why can't it run the .exe even when I'm in the directory?</p>
  
  <p>Sidenote, why does it show <code>PATH</code> as having colon separators rather than semi-colon separators?</p>
