Has there been a change to the locale feature of git for windows?

[sixwaaaay]

I'm having problems updating from git version v2.41.0.windows.1 to the latest v2.45.1.

In version 2.41, after I set LANG to zh_CN.utf-8, git's output works fine even though my powershell's code page is 936.

But in version 2.45.1, using the original configuration resulted in garbled code, and I had to set both input and output encodings of console to utf-8 in order to get the git output to work properly.

[console]::InputEncoding = [System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8
[Console]::OutputEncoding = [System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8

Or if I set LANG=zh_CN.GBK, I can make git output work.
In short, following the settings from before the update doesn't work.

What's confusing is that with LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8, I used git log -h > 1.txt to output to the file, and I found that both versions of the output were utf-8 encoded.
