Bash POSIX Mode on window 10

Question

I tried to use split command on window git bash shell. script is as below

test.sh
split -a 1 -p 'temp' file1.sql data-  && mv data-a data1.sql && mv data2.sql

it is failed with error:

split: unknown option -- p
Try 'split --help' for more information.

I read about -p for Bash POSIX Mode and see like it should work on Cygwin on window. I installed it and tried with it. It failed also with same error. It support on linux and mac. Is anybody idea what I am doing wrong

Answer 1

GNU split does not support -p. If you need to split on a pattern then use csplit instead.
