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
