You've really got to be a fanboy to claim that git is supported on Windows. Sure, it "works" -- in the same way that hammering a nail with a rock "works".

You've mentioned some fairly untypical usage, so it's not surprising you ran into so many problems. Why would you want to use the interactive bash shell?

I found that all git commands work fine from CMD. The only reason to use bash that I can think of is to allow copy-pasting commands with parameters quoted/escaped in a way incompatible to CMD. I'm not sure how vim fits the toolchain at all, I think it's just provided as a bonus in msysgit. If you need a proper *nix-like environment on Windows, have you looked at Cygwin? For a long while, Cygwin was the only supported way to run git on Windows.
