What exactly are you using as your commandline? If it's literally start git-bash.exe, then yea, a new window is going to open, because start is basically ShellExecute.

git-bash is launched using a WT profile:

            {
                "antialiasingMode": "cleartype",
                "commandline": "C:\\Program Files\\Git\\git-bash.exe",
                "guid": "{a3b32005-1a7f-4d48-b025-90f21d6afa1c}",
                "name": "Git Bash",
                "tabTitle": "Git Bash"
            }

And this is the result:

git-bash_wt_profile
