title: Python not working in the command line of git bash
body: <p>Python will not run in git bash (Windows). When I type python in the command line, it takes me to a blank line without saying that it has entered python 2.7.10 like its does in Powershell. It doesn't give me an error message, but python just doesn't run.</p>
  
  <p>I have already made sure the environmental variables in PATH included <code>c:\python27</code>. What else can I check?</p>
  
  <hr>
  
  <p>A session wherein this issue occurs looks like the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>user@hostname MINGW64 ~
  $ type python
  python is /c/Python27/python
  
  user@hostname MINGW64 ~
  $ python
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>...sitting there without returning to the prompt.</p>
