I just tested to run GIT's Perl inside a cmd.exe instead of a GIT-bash and copying worked fine

so it's rather the perl/debugger version conflicting with the cmd.exe

> Git\usr\bin\perl.exe -de0 ... Loading DB routines from perl5db.pl version 1.51 ... DB<3> say for 1..3 1 2 3 DB<4> ... This is perl 5, version 26, subversion 2 (v5.26.2)

and you're right Powershell doesn't have that problem ... (it's just tooo blue ;-)

DB<1> say for 1..3 1 2 3 DB<2>
