### 3. Use Git Bash for a Unix-like Environment
As an alternative, if you have installed Git for Windows along with the bundled MSYS2 tools, you can leverage its Bash shell and
Unix-style scripts to initialize XTchain exactly as on Linux. During the installation process, you have the option to include a set
of additional Unix utilities that, combined with the Bash shell, provide a powerful and familiar development environment. This setup
allows you to run XTchains shell scripts seamlessly on Windows, mirroring the Linux workflow and ensuring consistency across
platforms without the need for platform-specific adjustments.
For added convenience, you can also configure a dedicated profile in Windows Terminal that automatically launches Git Bash with the
XTchain environment pre-initialized. This makes it easy to jump straight into a ready-to-use shell session. The process for creating
this terminal profile is analogous to the one described in section 1.
