To change this current working directory, you can use the "cd" command (where "cd" stands for "change directory"). For example, to move one directory upwards (into the current folder's parent folder), you can just call: $ cd ..
Browse to the desired Directory through Commands in Git Bash Open your Git Bash. Type the following command cd <path of the directory> and press enter.
In order to navigate to a different drive just use
cd /E/Study/Codes
It will solve your problem.
Just consider your drive as a folder so do cd e:
How I do it in Windows 10
Go to your folder directory you want to open in git bash like so
After you have reached the folder simply type git bash
in the top navigation area like so and hit enter.
A git bash for the destined folder will open for you.
Hope that helps.
TL;DR; for Windows users:
(Quotation marks not needed if path has no blank spaces)
Git Bash: cd "/C/Program Files (x86)/Android"
// macOS/Linux syntax
Cmd.exe: cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android"
// windows syntax
When using git bash
on windows, you have to:
Git Bash: cd "/C/Program Files (x86)/Android"
// macOS/Linux syntax
Cmd.exe: cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android"
// windows syntax
In order to navigate to a different drive/directory you can do it in convenient way (instead of typing cd /e/Study/Codes), just type in cd[Space], and drag-and-drop your directory Codes with your mouse to git bash, hit [Enter].
Now which drive letter did that removable device get?
Two ways to locate e.g. a USB-disk in git Bash
:
$ cat /proc/partitions major minor #blocks name win-mounts 8 0 500107608 sda 8 1 1048576 sda1 8 2 131072 sda2 8 3 496305152 sda3 C:\ 8 4 1048576 sda4 8 5 1572864 sda5 8 16 0 sdb 8 32 0 sdc 8 48 0 sdd 8 64 0 sde 8 80 3952639 sdf 8 81 3950592 sdf1 E:\ $ mount C:/Program Files/Git on / type ntfs (binary,noacl,auto) C:/Program Files/Git/usr/bin on /bin type ntfs (binary,noacl,auto) C:/Users/se2982/AppData/Local/Temp on /tmp type ntfs (binary,noacl,posix=0,usertemp) C: on /c type ntfs (binary,noacl,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) E: on /e type vfat (binary,noacl,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) G: on /g type ntfs (binary,noacl,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) H: on /h type ntfs (binary,noacl,posix=0,user,noumount,auto)
... so; likely drive letter in this example => /e
(or E:\ if you must), when knowing that C, G, and H are other things (in Windows).
