I just installed the git and I chose to install the git bash (command line tool) together, to use all commands of the git for him. However, I noticed that mouse scrolling does not work at this prompt. Has anyone experienced it? I am using Windows 8.

I believe what you are trying to do is what this post here explains.

Below copy of the original text of the site:

The Windows command prompt (cmd.exe) has Always been known for being underpowered Compared to Linux, but have you Ever noticed that to view the output of a long command you have to resort to the mouse to scroll?

You can easily scroll with just the Keyboard, but to get into the "Scroll Mode" you’ll have to use a 4-key Combination that reminds me of Cheat codes on old nintendo games... Up, Up, Down, Down...

Press Alt+Space Together, and then E, then L

This will put the command prompt into "Scroll" mode, Where you can use the Page Up/Down Keys as well as the Arrow Keys.

To get out of this mode, you can hit the Esc or Enter Keys.

    I did it, but enabled scroll by keyboard only, mouse scroll still does not work.

  • Okay, so you can try following this one’s instructions post stackoverflow in English, unfortunately I don’t use windows to help you better.

    Links are not answers. What happens if the references go off the air? Post the interesting section of the site/post.

  • Ready fotanus, sorry for the lack of care with the contents is that at the time was in a hurry, already the second link is related to stackoverflow, there is need to reference content in the same way?

    @Luizfilipe +1 for tidying up the answer. I imagine that for responses to stackoverflow in English, the content should be copied, but not if the link goes to stackoverflow in Portuguese. But it’s not what the community has supported, as you can see in that meta question. But you have few votes left to be considered a standard, so feel free to contribute.

Enable the mode Quick Edit.

In Properties, on the flap Option -> Edit Option -> check the option Quick Edit and give OK.

(solution found in a Stack Overflow post in English, test and tell us if it worked).

    That didn’t work either!

  • I had already given this alternative.

Use the Conemu, open-source alternative to Command Prompt and Power Shell.

Under Gitbash, right-click and select Scrollbar.

When opening Git Bash right-click and choose scroll.

Try to get the 32 bit version. They work better on windows 8.
