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.

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:

• remove the colon after the drive letter
• replace your back-slashes with forward-slashes
• If you have blank spaces in your path: Put quotation marks at beginning and end of the path

Git Bash: cd "/C/Program Files (x86)/Android" // macOS/Linux syntax

Cmd.exe: cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android" // windows syntax
