Duplicate Git Bash tab in ConEmu through command/script

I'm trying to figure out how to duplicate my git bash tab in ConEmu via a command typed into the console and nothing seems to be working.

Followed along with this: Duplicate session in ConEmu

but..

bash -new_console

just throws

bash: -w: invalid option

Maybe bash isn't what I'm looking for? My default Task is {Bash::Git bash}

Does anyone know the best way to create a shortcut that can be typed into the console, or ran via an sh script, that will open a new tab in the same directory as the tab it was typed into?

Just prepend your command with ConEmuC -c. Example:

ConEmuC -c bash -new_console --login -i

Cygwin and msys due to hardcoded forking technology doesn't pass command line to their processes using standard Windows API.

That helped a lot! Although it appears doing something like ConEmuC -c bash -new_console --login -i && gulp watch or ConEmuC -c bash -new_console --login -i && git status doesn't work. Is there a workaround for this that allows executing a script in the new tab? – Octoxan – 2016-10-04T14:51:50.927
