title: Can I use gcloud in Git Bash on Windows?
body: <p>So, I've installed Git, Git Bash, Python2.7, and I've just installed the Google Cloud SDK <a href="https://cloud.google.com/sdk/" rel="noreferrer">per the official guide.</a>  Using Windows 10. </p>
  
  <p>In cmd.exe, or the "Google Cloud SDK Shell",  <code>gcloud</code> works fine.</p>
  
  <p>Within Git Bash, however (the terminal that I prefer to use), <code>gcloud</code> returns the following output (screenshot). </p>

  <p><code>echo $PATH</code> in Git Bash does include the path to the Google SDK (highlighted here).  </p>

  <p>Am I missing something?  Is there anything in $PATH that is possibly conflicting with gcloud, or did I misconfigure the path somehow? </p>
  
  <p>I appreciate any insight. </p>

  <p>UPDATE. Here is the output of <code>env|grep PATH</code>.  I'm not sure what it tells me. Any other executable in the PATH is working (vagrant, conda, python, etc), but gcloud is not. </p>
