PhpStorm integration with Git asks me for git.exe path, however "github for windows" seems like it doesn't create any git.exe file. So is it a way to config phpstorm so it use "github for windows" for working with github?

    You can also change your PhpStorm terminal to use Git Bash by going into Settings > Terminal > Shell path and setting it to C:\Windows\SysWOW64\cmd.exe /c ""C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\sh.exe" --login -i"

    Mine only worked using this: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\sh.exe" --login -i (WebStorm 10)

I set it up using Git Bash, once installed in PhpStorm go to:

settings > version control > Git

And point to

C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\cmd\git.exe

Or where ever you installed Git Bash

To configure Git with PhpStorm on Windows 7 use the following path :

C:\Program Files\Git\bin\git.exe

( Used with Git version is 2.7.1.0 )

Github for Windows uses a version of PortableGit located in the AppData\Local\Github folder.

Very similar to the RubyMine Issue above: Integrating RubyMine with GitHub for Windows
