Adding Git-Bash to the new Windows Terminal

Question

I'm trying to add a new terminal (Git Bash) to the new Windows Terminal. However, I can't get it to work.

I tried changing the commandline property in the profiles array to git-bash.exe but no luck.

Does anyone have an idea how to get this to work?

Open settings with Ctrl + ,

You'll want to append one of the profiles options below to the "list" portion of the settings.json file 

{
    "$schema": "https://aka.ms/terminal-profiles-schema",

    "defaultProfile": "{00000000-0000-0000-ba54-000000000001}",

    "profiles":
    {
        "defaults":
        {
            // Put settings here that you want to apply to all profiles
        },
        "list":
        [
            <put one of the configuration below right here>
        ]
    }
}

Uncomment correct paths for commandline and icon if you are using:

• Git for Windows in %PROGRAMFILES%
• Git for Windows in %USERPROFILE%
• If you're using scoop
