On my Windows machine, running gVim appears to tie up the git for windows shell, whereas if I run from the command prompt, this is not the case.
How might I be able to run gVim (or any other program, really) without tying up the shell and having to add an '&' to the end of each command?
Any help on this issue would be much appreciated.
Git Bash:
$ gvim hello.txt
[Terminal is now blocked]
[Hit ctrl+c or close gvim, terminal takes input]
$
Windows Command Prompt:
> gvim hello.txt
> [ Can still access cursor and execute commands]
