Git spawns thousands of times

[rasa]

On two different systems now, git spawns thousands of times bringing the system to a crawl:

c:>tasklist | grep git.exe | wc -l
  14279

Perhaps the issue is that scoop's apps/shims/git.exe runs apps/git/current/cmd/git.exe, but instead of it running apps/git/current/mingw64/libexec/git-core/git.exe it runs apps/shims/git.exe again, in a vicious cycle?

Any idea what exactly the issue is, and how to fix it?

So, when I typed:

cd apps\git\2.25.1.windows.1\cmd
set path=
git.exe --version

it never returns. Instead, this happens:

Running

call scoop uninstall -g git
call scoop install -g git

fixed it for now.

This just happened with aria2c. For some reason, C:\apps\shims\aria2c.shim contains:

path = C:\apps\shims\aria2c.exe

and scoop reset aria2 doesn't fix it. wtf?
