Set up git bash to work with tabs on windows

Question

I have installed console2 and git bash, my goal is to make git bash working with tabs , I have changed the target path on console setting to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\sh.exe" --login -i. When I open console it doesn't give me option for tabs anymore.

I've got this working with ConEmu instead.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/conemu/

1. Install Git Bash
2. Install ConEmu
3. Open ConEmu, in settings (top right corner), click "settings"
4. In the settings tree, open "startup", then "tasks"
5. Add a new task, or edit one of the existing ones
   • click on the "tab" button in second row from bottom
   • in the first box, enter "[git directory]\bin\sh.exe --login -s"
   • in the second box, enter your preferred startup directory
   • save
   • now assign a hotkey (top right corner) (I have mine on ctrl+T)
6. You're done! Now you have a multitabbed console in windows, where you can create any number of Git Bash windows via a hotkey.
