'Error in /etc/nanorc in GIT for Windows, no /usr/share/nano
I got this error while using nano in Windows Terminal, with GIT-bash.
$ nano .bashrc
Error in /etc/nanorc on line 237: Error expanding /usr/share/nano/*.nanorc: No such file or directory

Got my answer here, that I will copy-paste here in case the content is lost:
$ git clone https://github.com/serialhex/nano-highlight
$ cd nano-highlight
$ cp * /usr/share/nano
Solution 2:[2]
run this command from git bash (as admin)
dos2unix /usr/share/nano/git.nanorc
It fixes line breaks, which are different in Linux and Windows.
