Details

• Which terminal/shell are you running Git from? e.g Bash/CMD/PowerShell/other

** Bash **

If you run any git command which produces the result longer then the screen of terminal can fit, after you scroll to the end of the output [ ]

press Ctrl+C and start typing, everything what you typing is not visible anymore,

but if you hit Enter, it will execute what you entered.

I strugle with *git-diff, *git-reflog and other cmds when I need more then 30 lines...
It lasts couple years already, did not find time to report, sorry...
Thank you in advance. Happy New Year!

I think this is an issue we already saw, and fixed. Could you try v2.20.1 (i.e. the current Git for Windows version)?

[m-chichikalov]

on Windows 10 I'm using
2.20.1.windows.1 -> the bahvior the same.
Thank you for immediate response.

[m-chichikalov]

Updated on Windows 7 to 2.20.1, the same, even worst, seems like Ctrl+C is not working any more.
Tested on Windows 10 Ctrl+C -> the same, it stuck for 20...30 seconds, and only after this time you can leave the output of git-diff.

[m-chichikalov]

BTW, I found that it happends only when you use Ctrl+C to exit the editor. If use "Ctrl+q q" or "zz" everyting works fine.

it happends only when you use Ctrl+C to exit the editor

Which editor? Where is there an editor involved in git diff? And which editor can you exit via Ctrl+C (vim should not exit when you hit Ctrl+C).

[m-chichikalov]

Yep, looks like it vim but not sure... During installation I did not change the default one, so probably vim. This is just habbit to exit by Ctrl+C... so, yes, when I use Ctrl+q q everything is fine. Should I close this one?
