Command to clear the Git Bash screen, including output buffer

Is there any command in Git, that clear the screen. for example in window command line after execute a lot of code, if you type cls, then it will clear all the previous code. so i want the same type of functionality in Git. so can anybody will tell me the command name.

Actually you are looking for a Unix user environment command

clear

or you can use the keyboard shortcut

ctrl+l

To clear entire command history in Git Bash.

history -c

try using reset command, it will absolutely clean your screen but you will still have access to previous commands

reset

Neither clear nor history -c does the work actually.
Scroll up, all commands will be visible.

Solution:
If you are in Windows 10, and using mintty 2.7.9 (or above ?) for git bash, use Alt + F8 ... this will work.
Best of luck.
Happy coding.

Reference: here (Perhaps it didn't work for Windows 7)

Another option is modify (or create in your user folder) your .bash_profile and add this:

alias cls='clear';

With this you can clear the bash with a 'Windows' command.

CTRL + L

Neither clear nor history -c was clearing the history permanently.
All commands will be visible when scrolled up.
So, I solved the issue by:

In my instance the path for bash history was:
/c/Users/<your_username>/.bash_history

I removed the file by the following commands:

rm ~/.bash_history

After that, I restarted the terminal. the commands were gone.

Most times clr, clear and cls doesn't work use ctrl c to continue writing commands

At the moment I use

clear;reset;clear

(in one line) and it sort of works (git version 2.32.0.windows.1).

use clear only without git command

" clear "
