Actually, when I tried to use git on Win10 it worked at first but then at some point stopped functioning.

Now that I'm on Win11, I definitely need to revisit that - thanks for the reminder!

The only downside, though, is the clipboard won't be as easily accessible. I'm thinking of things like piping text to clip.

clip works in WSL

Not out of the box. When I try it I get this:

  $ ls -al | clip

  Command 'clip' not found, but can be installed with:

  sudo apt install geomview

"geomview" has something to do with 3D images.

I tried this with Ubuntu 18 and 20 ...

WSL has absolute dogshit I/O so that's not true

I think that's what I ran into ... but not at first, only later, which was weird ...
