If I do it in CMD, it works without issues, but if I try it in Git Bash it doesn\'t work. I like to use Git Bash as my only console, but I can\'t do that if it doesn\'t work wit

You can define an alias in your .bashrc: alias python='python -i', but doing this, you will not be able to run a script file (i.e.: python script.py).
