Very recently Powershell hasn't been doing auto-completes correctly for filepaths in my cwd. Here is an example of me tabbing after typing: git add ./.ipynb_ I expect ..ipynb_checkpoints but instead get this.



[93mgit[33m[45m [33madd[33m[45m [33m..ipynb_checkpoints[33m[45m[0m


Screenshot of the powershell window



This only happens for git related autocompletes. For instance autocomplete works fine with py -3.



I think its related to coloring of the input text going wrong because this is similar to this question: Strange zsh autocomplete behaviour



But I have no idea how to fix this, any thoughts?
