I did check this with my Git for Windows installation before posting. Mine is older (2.7.0) though so maybe things have changed: pds@build-win MINGW64 ~ $ type -a ls ls is aliased to `ls -F --color=auto --show-control-chars' ls is /usr/bin/ls ls is /bin/ls ls is /usr/bin/ls ls is /usr/bin/ls Clearly I have a lot of duplicates on my PATH now that I notice :) I have /mingw64/bin on my PATH as well but looking there it has git, gettext, edit, a bunch of DLL's, etc. but it doesn't contain ls or other coreutils programs. Cheers!
