How to mouse scroll with Git Bash?

Question

Using Git Bash or MinGW Shell, if I put in a command with much output, for example env, I cannot mouse scroll. A regular old Command Prompt (cmd.exe) window will do this however.

Answer 1

Enable Quick Edit mode

• Open Properties: AltSpace, then P (for properties)
• Under Options tab > Edit Options > Check Quick Edit > Hit OK

Now you will be able to scroll with mouse.

To permanently enable Quick Edit, open Properties from the Git Bash program shortcut. – Departure

Answer 2

In the latest version of the git bash you don't have any property such as Quick Edit but then too your scroll might not work as it was my case..

• press alt + space then click options and go to window then

• Simply change your scrollbar location from right to left or vice versa then it will work, at least worked for me.
