I want to connect my android studio with git and installed git separately and when I enable version control. There is an error
"Cannot run program "git.exe" The system cannot find the file specified" searched in C drive programs files and X86 too but didn't get git.exe location.

closed with the note: Got my answer Thanks QueryHome.

To fix this in Android Studio click File > Settings > Version Control > Git and then set the path to the location of git.exe on your system. Something like  'c:\program files (x86)\git\bin\git.exe'

Putting an entire drive under GIT version control?

Im putting together a thumb drive that boots into an evil operating system (yes, that one), and has some applications and data on it. It would be nice to have the whole thing under version control. Yes, I know this is unconventional.

It seems to me that I might create a folder for this project, which would contain the repository, and a shortcut to the drive (/dev/sd_n_), and track the shortcut as a binary file.

Im new to VCS, but I know about the concept of filters for binary files. Is there one for ntfs? I dont think I would track changes to individual files, but rather track changes to sectors.

Any help at all will be appreciated, even if youre just telling me that this is impossible or impractical.

but I don't completely understand the explanation,Please explain.
