MSYS2

  • MSYS2 (usually upper case) consists of three relatively separate subsystems: msys2 , mingw32 and mingw64.
  • msys2 (sometimes called just msys) is an emulation layer — fully POSIX compatible but slow.
  • mingw subsystems provide native Windows binaries, with Linux calls rewritten at compile time to their Windows equivalents. For example, Git for Windows is a mingw64 binary (unlike msys Git which utilizes the compatibility layer and is therefore slow).
  • Each subsystem has its own shell and it’s important to be in the right one. The msys shell has a PATH starting with /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:... while the mingw64 shell adds /mingw64/bin before it. This means that /mingw64/bin/git.exe is only available in the mingw64 shell.
  • MSYS2 comes with Pacman, a package manager ported from Arch Linux, and many packages installable by pacman -S <package>.
pacman -Syu # repeat if necessary
pacman -Su

ConEmu with mingw shell

  1. I didn’t hit any issues installing packages from the mingw shell.
  2. did hit issues installing mingw-w64-x86_64-git-lfs from the msys shell, because it uses git as part of its installation which is not in msys’ PATH.
  3. Worrying about two shells, two ConEmu tasks, two PATH configurations, etc. is IMO not worth it until proven otherwise.

Prompt

  1. It should be simple, like Pure.
  2. It must be asynchronous so that querying Git info doesn’t block the actual work.
