Quickly remove the text without having to create a custom prompt.

Edit the file: C:\Program Files\Git\etc\profile.d\git-prompt.sh

 else
        TITLEPREFIX=$MSYSTEM
 fi
 
 if test -f ~/.config/git/git-prompt.sh
 then
        . ~/.config/git/git-prompt.sh
 else
-       PS1='\[\033]0;$TITLEPREFIX:$PWD\007\]' # set window title
+       PS1='\[\033]0;$PWD\007\]' # set window title
        PS1="$PS1"'\n'                 # new line
        PS1="$PS1"'\[\033[32m\]'       # change to green
        PS1="$PS1"'\u@\h '             # user@host<space>
-       PS1="$PS1"'\[\033[35m\]'       # change to purple
-       PS1="$PS1"'$MSYSTEM '          # show MSYSTEM
        PS1="$PS1"'\[\033[33m\]'       # change to brownish yellow
        PS1="$PS1"'\w'                 # current working directory
        if test -z "$WINELOADERNOEXEC"
        then
                GIT_EXEC_PATH="$(git --exec-path 2>/dev/null)"
                COMPLETION_PATH="${GIT_EXEC_PATH%/libexec/git-core}"
                COMPLETION_PATH="${COMPLETION_PATH%/lib/git-core}"
                COMPLETION_PATH="$COMPLETION_PATH/share/git/completion"

Note: After an update the file will be overwritten, so you will need to apply the changes again.
