Clink prompt retains history items when using arrow keys to cycle through history

[Avinm]

For some history items clink retains the first 8 characters in the prompt when cycling the history with arrow keys. The retained characters wont go away with backspace and would seem to have become part of the PS1. Hitting enter to bring up the next line is the only way to get rid of these 8 sticky characters. Using Clink 0.4.7 on Win7 x64

Maybe the same problem?
I guess it happens when there are some specific utf-8 texts. I have found this one "σ".
The WideCharToMultiByte function return its width as 2, but it is actually one column wide when displayed.
Here's the image. I pressed ↑ and ↓ to show histories in the first line.
I pasted 'σ' and pressed Backspace in the second line.

Not sure if it's linked to utf-8 characters.

My recent history has items like "git clone http://myproject" and "rm -rf myfolder" and as soon as I get to the second item in history, I have the bug.

I have the same problem, but using Clink v0.4.6 on Win10 x64.

Seems to be related to having special chars in your $PROMPT, my prompt currently is
PROMPT=$E[m$E[32m$E]9;8;"USERNAME"$E@$E]9;8;"COMPUTERNAME"$E$S$E[92m$P$E[90m$_$E[90m$$$E[m$S$E]9;12$E
The issue seems to be absent with the default prompt supplied with clink
