I am trying to setup semantic UI in my repository and for some reason I can't use the arrow keys to select menu options in Git Bash.
Press down or up only moves my cursor, it doesnt move the > icon that selects the correct menu option.
When in Git bash and prompted for an answer by arrow key selection. You have to first type '>' and look at what line it typed on(usually the first line). The goal is to get that greater than symbol on the current line selected. In my case I had to press the down arrow to get it on the 'apps' selection line.
Make sure the "Quick Edit Mode" option is checked. If an "Experimental" tab shows up, select it and then make sure the top "Enable experimental console" and the "Enable new Ctrl key shortcuts" options are both checked. Click 'OK' to save. Now you can use Ctrl+V to paste.
Practice using arrow keysUse the right and left arrow keys to move between columns and up and down arrow keys to move between rows. Use in combination with other keys for shortcut keys. For example, pressing the Alt key and the Left arrow key in all Internet browsers takes you back one page.
Like macOS and Linux, operating systems already have a command-line terminal where you can run Git and Linux commands directly. But for Windows, you have the Windows command prompt, which is a non-Unix terminal. How can you run Git and Linux commands in Windows? Git Bash will do the trick.
delete the symbol to unselect, type > (close angle bracket) to select, press enter
You can use Visual Studio Code terminal and it works.
Git bash doesn't support an interactive terminal.
Use the regular windows terminal or powershell
Hey man its been a while, but I literally just ran into this issue. the solution for me was to manually delete and type > or use gitbash in VSC integrated terminal mode
I chose to do the latter.
