Always nice to have more alternatives, but I find either http://bliker.github.io/cmder/ http://bliker.github.io/cmder/ (a tricked out console with a nicely tweaked git bash environment) or http://babun.github.io/ http://babun.github.io/ (Cygwin but easier to install and with nicer defaults) better for daily use when forced to wallow in the Windows pool at work.
