Terminal color output not displaying as expected

[laballab]

Environment

Windows build number: Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.18363.900]
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): Version: 1.0.1401.0

All steps/tests are done in a git-bash profile in windows terminal. 

Steps to reproduce

I can consistently reproducing this issue by running k9s with invalid kubeconfig. K9s will output a red-colored warning regarding this which is not rendered properly on windows terminal.

Expected behavior

A colorful error message warning us about the invalid kubeconfig:

Actual behavior

Windows terminal is not rendering the color output properly:

It seems the color commands are being interpreted as utf-8 arrows for some reason.. It's strange this bug isn't present in the bash prompt as the same color commands are used there and the colors are rendered properly.

Huh, thanks for the report.

This is the same root cause as #6634
