On Gitbash - Bower: ENOGIT git is not installed or not in PATH

I have a project with a bower.json file and I am trying to load all of its bower libraries on Windows. I turn on Gitbash, cd into that project directory, and type update bower install / bower. I am getting the error:

bower ENOGIT        git is not installed or not in the PATH

      

        
        
        
      

    

But there is a path to git:

$ which git
/bin/git

      

        
        
        
      

    

So a weird thing that actually works in cmd on Windows , but it doesn't work with Gitbash . This is the value I have in the system PATH variable in relation to git:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Develop\VCS\Git\cmd

      

        
        
        
      

    

I tried to reinstall msysgit and chose the option: Run Git From Windows Command Prompt, e.g .:

It still doesn't work.

Bower version:

$ bower --version
1.4.1

      

        
        
        
      

    

Git version:

$ git --version
git version 1.9.5.msysgit.1

      

        
        
        
      

    

• Bower is installed globally using npm

EDIT: I found the cause of this problem: I have a file in my profile home directory .bashrc that I usually use to define common aliases, etc., and I added this line:

export PATH="~/AppData/Roaming/Composer/vendor/bin":$PATH

      

        
        
        
      

    

And somehow when this line is present I get an error in Gitbash, but that just adds the path to the composer's global packages, what should it do with Git itself or conversation?
