As a non-Windows user, I don't know why this decision has been made and whether there were any reasons for doing it, but it's a part of Git for Windows and not Git proper. I do know that in the past, Windows Terminal has had some serious compliance bugs: it claimed to be xterm-256color (instead of the correct ms-terminal) and failed to implement enough features that it broke Vim in many cases, which obviously wouldn't be suitable. However, I think that's been fixed, and it may function correctly now that it's supportable as an option, but you'd have to ask the Git for Windows project why they don't have that option. They may be delighted to off an option to have less code. --=20 brian m. carlson (he/him or they/them) Toronto, Ontario, CA --Ntc0bNtILWIkJp/G Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.3.1 (GNU/Linux) iHUEABYKAB0WIQQILOaKnbxl+4PRw5F8DEliiIeigQUCYdgUhwAKCRB8DEliiIei gZjVAQDV8ikYRJH/hXB9htK6iYsvFcZxX7Ua/Ggw64vQIiA0pQEAzM9pO7ABraHk zWIj0nH69TIP0jKKtY558jqU8cmaAws= =U7Q3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Ntc0bNtILWIkJp/G--
