How to mouse scroll with Git Bash?


Using Git Bash or MinGW Shell, if I put in a command with much output, for example env, I cannot mouse scroll. A regular old Command Prompt (cmd.exe) window will do this however.


Solution

  • Enable Quick Edit mode

    • Open Properties: AltSpace, then P (for properties)
    • Under Options tab > Edit Options > Check Quick Edit > Hit OK

    Now you will be able to scroll with mouse.
