Autocompletion in git bash for windows flashes/blinks #7688
Description
Environment
Windows build number: Version 10.0.19041.508
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 1.2.2381.0
Any other software?
Git(git for Windows): 2.28.0
Steps to reproduce
- Open a new git bash tab.
- Navigate to your windows directory.
- Type "cd syst".
- Press tab twice.
Expected behavior
Screen doesn't flash, your command is unfolded to "cd system".
Actual behavior
Screen flashes gray for a moment.
If you inspect the gif frame-by-frame it actually inverts colors, rather than make it all single color:
Interestingly it doesn't happen consistently. If I backspace it twice (so that it is "cd syst" again) and press tab, there might be no flash this time.
It's not reproducible in git bash console app itself.
It's a regression that happened over last quarter or so, but I'm surprised I didn't find any existing issue on that.
