Windows Terminal version (or Windows build number)

1.7.1033.0

Other Software

tig version 2.3.0 (inside WSL2, Ubuntu 18.04)

Steps to reproduce

  1. Set the following as font settings:
            "fontFace": "Consolas",
            "fontSize": 8
  1. open tig in a git repo on your WSL

Expected Behavior

What you see at fontsize 9:

Actual Behavior

At fontsize 8:

at fontsize 7:

at fontsize 6:

As you can see the exact lines that are missing differ based on the fontsize. I ran into this issue with fontsize 10 using this Ubuntu Mono Nerd Font, but as shown here it also reproduces with Consolas. One interesting thing is that all lines are visible with the Ubunutu font is that, on fontsize 8 and 10 all lines are visible, but on fontsize 9 not all are visible. So it's not just that the font is "too small" to display the lines.

I thought of commenting on this issue: https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/909, but it seems unrelated after going through the comments there.
