That's what I've observed. To be honest, I'm one of the lazy guys and didn't really understand the impact of setting NO_FSTAB_THREAD at first glance. As I understood, setting it means "mounting drives afterwards works, but slows things down" and not setting it means the opposite. Meanwhile I'm familiar with re-starting my git-bash in case (that's not too bad for me). I almost never run git commands from cmd.exe because cmd.exe is rubbish. But, again, thanx for the help; now I know how to fine-tune the behaviour if I wish.
