Bug description

The solution where aliases are added to .bash_profile works for "regular" Git Bash, but not for the Git Bash terminal in PhpStorm.
A better solution I have found is to move the aliases the to a new .bashrc file.
With this configuration, the aliases work both in regular Git Bash and in PhpStorm's Git Bash terminal.

.bash_profile

if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
   source ~/.bashrc
fi

.bashrc
also added an alias for expose ( = all .bat files in %USERPROFILE%\.config\herd\bin)

alias herd='herd.bat'
alias php='php.bat'
alias composer='composer.bat'
alias laravel='laravel.bat'
alias expose='expose.bat'

THanks for leaving this here so that others can find it via search engines and AI as soon it's part of model training data 🙂

Copying these aliases from .bash_profile to .bashrc fixed my PHPStorm terminal. Not sure if I should have them in both places, but thank you!
