Please note that the .bat files created by the MSYS2 installer for
launching the shells (mingw32_shell.bat, msys2_shell.bat...) do a bit
more than simply invoking bash. Depending on what you intend to do,
those missing steps might cause some trouble. Specifically, you should
set the MSYSTEM environment variable.

I recommend to copy and edit the corresponding .bat file for removing
the call to mintty.
