Environment

Windows build number: Version 10.0.18363.449
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): Version: 0.6.2951.0

Any other software? Git for Windows 2.24.0
Powershell core 6.2.3

Steps to reproduce

I am using WT with PSC. Inside it, I issue git push command. It require me to input account and password. Instead of typing them manually, I tried to paste the password.

I tried two things:

  1. using the right mouse button
  2. using Ctrl-V

Expected behavior

I expect that the password text would be pasted and accepted by git command

Actual behavior

Nothing happens. git does not receive the pasted text.

Please note, I verified that I can paste text inside WT itself. Both right mouse button and Ctrl-V options worked. The issue is somewhere in the interaction of WT, PSC, and git. If I am using CMD only or PSC only, I can successfully paste the text and git accepts the input.
