cd into folder really slow.

• Your Windows build number: (Type ver at a Windows Command Prompt)
  Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.16299.125]

• What you're doing and what's happening: (Copy&paste specific commands and their output, or include screen shots)

I am 'cd' into a big folder that lives on the windows side.

git version 2.15.1

find . -type f | wc:
15789 16064 1321131

It takes 1+ minutes to complete operation.

• What's wrong / what should be happening instead:

It is way too long. Other folders 'cd' are almost instant.

• Strace of the failing command, if applicable: (If some_command is failing, then run strace -o some_command.strace -f some_command some_args, and link the contents of some_command.strace in a gist here)

Not sure how to stance built in command 'cd'

Closing. This seems to only happen the first time you switch into a big folder with a ton of files

[masters3d]

Nope. This comes back after closing the bash window.

Sometimes control + c allows you to see the target folder

Seem to only manifest when running in Legacy mode

>wslconfig.exe /list
Windows Subsystem for Linux Distributions:
Legacy (Default)
Ubuntu

I also notice that when opening a large file for the first time, it is very slow.
Opening again while the bash.exe is open will be fast.
But once the bash.exe is closed and re-open again, everything start again. (opening for the first time will be painfully slow.)

sad state of things. I was hoping to use bash for all git related things but Mubarak’s repo is really big. I am forced to use git windows.
