… Bash under Windows (pythonGH-125399) * Convert paths in venv activate script when using Git Bash under Windows With python#112508 the check to converts paths when running on Windows was changed from using the non-posix environment variable `$OSTYPE` to using `uname` instead. However this missed the fact that when running under Git Bash on Windows, uname reports `MINGW*` (`$OSTYPE` is still `msys`). This results in `$PATH` being set to something like `D:\a\github-actions-shells\github-actions-shells\venv/Scripts:…`, instead of `/d/a/github-actions-shells/github-actions-shells/venv/Scripts`. Notably, the Git Bash is the bash shell that’s used for GitHub Actions Windows runners, and ships with VSCode. (cherry picked from commit 2a378db) Co-authored-by: Julien <julien@caffeine.lu>
