That sounds as if you tried to use Windows' default console window for Git Bash (note: the issue reporting template really is not meant to annoy bug reporters, but rather intended to help you not forget vital information).

Can you edit git-bash.exe via ResEdit? Its first string table has two entries, and you would want to remove the first one.

[donhuvy]

• I used previous version of Git for Windows, and the problem did not exist.

• You said true, I tried to use Windows' default console (cmd).

• A warning popup display, it is wrong. It is exactly a bug.

@donhuvy please do try to work with me, if you do not try ResEdit I get the impression that you might not be interested in resolving this bug at all.

[donhuvy]

ok, I will reply soon. I am using macOS, I will report about it when use Windows OS.

This is my result

First line

git --version

Could you summarize that without pasting an image that I cannot see in a text reader?

[donhuvy]

The content of it is
