An unexpected error has occurred. Conda has prepared the above report.
If submitted, this report will be used by core maintainers to improve
future releases of conda.
Would you like conda to send this report to the core maintainers?
[y/N]:
Can you guys please help me out? I just want to be able to activate the conda environments from Git Bash.
Also, activate my_env works when I'm using just the regular command prompt, so there seems to be a problem with Git Bash and conda.
Here's my conda info if you need it:

EDIT: It seems like the conda activate script scans through my bash prompt and gets stuck on the lambda "λ", because it can't recognise this character.
If you read the error message, I think this specific part stands out: UnicodeEncodeError: 'charmap' codec can't encode character '\u03bb'
The \u03bb is unicode encoding for the lambda character, but the activate script can't recognize it. Is there a way I can change the encoding somehow so that the conda activate script can recognize this character?
You seem to be in a Cmder session, which means issue 7445 could apply:
Note that cmder have a lambda charater (
λ) in front of each command.I think it is this lambda charater (i.e. '\u03bb') that is not handled correctly in the encoder/decoder class found in
\lib\encodings\cp1252.py.
Workaround:
Remove the lambda character in
cmder\vendor\git-for-windows\etc\profile.d\git-prompt.shat line at line 36.PS1="$PS1"'' # prompt: always "λ "
