How to enable vim style navigation in git bash?

I'm pretty tired of navigating git bash with the arrow keys and I read somewhere that you can enable vim style navigation in git bash so I was just wondering how to enable this?

Solution

  • You should be able to simply type:

    set -o vi

    That will activate vi-style navigation.
    I just tested it on Windows with Git 2.11.
