Problem starting terminal in SourceTree 2.0.20.1

[Jon Champlin]

I recently upgraded SourceTree from 1.9 to 2.0.20.1 and now when I click on the 'Terminal' button to start a bash shell I get:

The procedure entry point __locale_ctype_ptr could not be located in the dynamic link library msys-2.0.dll

I get this regardless if I use the system or embedded Git (which are both 2.11).

I solved this problem by updating GIT installation on my computer.

Hi

It is very likely this is due to a different version of msys-2.0.dll being found on your PATH before the one shipped with git 2.11.

This gives the function mismatch. It is worth searching for other instances of msys-2.0.dll on your maching to determine where it is and what may have installed it.

Only found two instances - looks like the system and embedded Git:

C:\>dir /s msys-2.0.dll
Volume in drive C has no label.
Volume Serial Number is 7E9A-70C3
