Thanks. The beep already tortured by eardrums quite a few times, but not anymore

A more direct route would be to issue this command from the msys shell:
echo “set bell-style none” >> $HOME/.inputrc

Thanks! The file already existed in my install (line 14). If this is the case for anyone else, just edit that line (change audible to none).

Thanks! I used curl to grab a binary (without piping) and fell into a loud hell. Now it’s a bit quieter.

Thanks a lot! Here we are in a new millenium +1 decade and we still have “beepy” things from the 70′s.

No idea, but it sounds more like a system setting to me. Check your Sounds config!

Thanks. Any idea how to make it shut up when using git-archive?

Many thanks you saved my day.
Great tip about $HOME.
