@Nantris commented on GitHub (Nov 10, 2022):

I found that this appears to be caused by using Git For Windows instead of the Cygwin Git. Quite unexpected. https://github.com/msys2/MSYS2-packages/issues/2820

I'm not sure if this should be opened or closed now.

I think this is the same issue that was reported in #13819. And the people in that thread also seemed to think it was a problem in Git For Windows, or at least the less pager that git is using.

Thanks @j4james. This all makes sense now. I guess it's because I mapped zsh to use Git for Windows but not in bash.

Hey, @Slapbox. How were you able to map zsh to bash?

@ixxiv instead of running from cygwin.bat, create a cygwin.zsh.bat with the contents below, and run that instead:

@echo off
setlocal enableextensions
set TERM=
cd /d "%~dp0bin" && .\zsh --login -i

I'm working on a project to one-click install Zsh to Windows Terminal but it will be a few weeks before it's ready, optimistically.
