With ConPTY support, the following command results in output that

For copy/paste, this is surprising and undesired
(https://github.com/mintty/mintty/issues/971).
Can the line wrapping case be handled specifically, assuming proper
auto-wrap mode on the terminal side, to avoid this?
This is internal behaviour of pseudo console.
So we can not touch it. WSL also behaves the same.
Observations when I ssh to a Windows 10 1909 machine running cygwin
3.1.4/OpenSSH 8.2...
I ran ssh-host-config and tested both with disable_pcon set in CYGWIN
environment variable and without. (This sets REG_SZ value
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\cygsshd\Parameters\Environment\CYGWIN=disable_pcon)
With disable_pcon set:
echo "$PATH" -- wraps correctly
cmd /c echo %PATH% -- wraps correctly
winpty cmd /c echo %PATH% -- wrapping broken
Without disable_pcon set:
echo "$PATH" -- wraps correctly
cmd /c echo %PATH% -- wrapping broken
winpty cmd /c echo %PATH% -- wrapping broken
I would note that in both cases, winpty output is not correct.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix it?
Note that winpty is obsolete under current cygwin, and the second cmd
case is the only issue.
As Takashi explained, there is no fix on the cygwin side. It could be
fixed on the Windows side, within the ConPTY API.
You could report it there...
