I think Britton was talking about gitk, not about the console.
As it happens, this issue was already reported to the Git for Windows bug
tracker:
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/300
It would appear that the culprit is a change in Tcl/Tk, not in gitk. I
outlined a possible solution in that ticket but have no plans to implement
that solution myself.
Ciao,
Johannes
