Environment

Windows build number: Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.18362.175]
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 0.2.1750.0

My font is Input Mono.

Steps to reproduce

Open Windows Terminal, PowerShell with this profile (it's basically posh-git and Chocolatey):

# poshgit...
Push-Location (Split-Path -Path $MyInvocation.MyCommand.Definition -Parent)

# Load posh-git module from current directory
Import-Module .\posh-git\posh-git

# If module is installed in a default location ($env:PSModulePath),
# use this instead (see about_Modules for more information):
# Import-Module posh-git


# Set up a simple prompt, adding the git prompt parts inside git repos
function global:prompt {
    $realLASTEXITCODE = $LASTEXITCODE

    Write-Host($pwd.ProviderPath) -nonewline

    Write-VcsStatus

    $global:LASTEXITCODE = $realLASTEXITCODE
    return "> "
}

Pop-Location

Start-SshAgent -Quiet

# Chocolatey profile
$ChocolateyProfile = "$env:ChocolateyInstall\helpers\chocolateyProfile.psm1"
if (Test-Path($ChocolateyProfile)) {
  Import-Module "$ChocolateyProfile"
}

function semver { gitversion /output json /showvariable fullsemver }

$env:Path += (";" + $PSScriptRoot)
  1. Go to a git folder (such that the posh-git prompt appears)
  2. Type a character
  3. Type another character
  4. Type yet another character (the suspense is killing me!)

Expected behavior

The first two character stay as they were, and the third appears right next to them.

Actual behavior

The first two characters move to the left one position, and the third appears next to them. I.e. any commands 3 characters or greater get shifted to the left one position when the 3rd character is typed.

This occurs for any 3rd character, including spaces.

Have just found #635 ... it looks very similar but that talks about rendering characters the wrong width? That doesn't seem to be the case here?

Posh-git's "prompt status" feature uses one of those "triple equals" symbols and some other branch markers, right? Those are probably categorized like the powerline symbols: double-width, but we don't know why.

Sorry. I meant to add before submitting: that means this likely is a duplicate of #635.
