So question: If I install git on BUW (using

apt-get install git
), is that just redundant (so I should stick with the git bash shell I already have and know), or is it the BUW version better in some way (and I should uninstall git as I have it now)? If I install both, will they conflict?(Keeping in mind that I use git on my Windows files - not at all sure whether that'll still work if I uninstall git bash, honestly.)Niayesh IskyNiayesh Isky

Installing git on WSL and installing git on windows is different. John deere serial search. There won't be any conflict. The environment variables of WSL and Windows are separate. Changes made to env on WSL doesn't affect the env on Windows. Both versions of git are almost same so no comparison regarding that. You can definitely run them simultaneously on both system and it will never create any conflict. Both works fine. Free music apps for laptops.
