-Scenario: +If you update an environment variable and want to use the new value in an existing git bash session 
-  * I updated an environment variable and want to use the new value in an existing git bash shell running inside conemu. Normallythis would require to close the existing bash shell and start a new one. One way to work around is to use the refreshenv.sh script from https://github.com/badrelmers/RefrEnv + download the refreshenv.sh script from https://github.com/badrelmers/RefrEnv and call it from bash with ''source /path/to/refrenv.sh''

 +git version 2.34.1.windows.1
 +$ bash --version
 +GNU bash, version 4.4.23(1)-release (x86_64-pc-msys)
