I've tried this for years. And cygwin is garbage. Git bash has done the best at letting me do 70% of what I need.
In either case. 15 minutes after installing ubuntu I realize what an aweful waste of time it is. 1 day after installing ubuntu and customizing it I realize that windows is only good to boot into to remote desktop to work and play video games.
This is about the 5th time I've had the same experience. Every time I decide "i can do that in windows" I realize its 10x easier to do it in linux. It don't matter the flavor. Having things like a good shell, symlinks, etc. is just awesome.
