Log Messages filter breaks Russian characters on pasting

What steps will reproduce the problem?

When I paste Russian text into the Log Messages filter, I get broken characters such as ??????????? or �����������

  1. Copy Russian text from UTF-8 file to the clipboard having an active English keyboard layout
  2. Paste it into Log Messages filter. You will see ???????????
  3. Copy Russian text from UTF-8 file to the clipboard having an active Russian keyboard layout
  4. Paste it into Log Messages filter. You will see �����������

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect the correct characters encoding.

What version of TortoiseGit and Git are you using? On what operating system?

  • Windows 10 Pro 20H2 (19042.1466) x64
  • TortoiseGit-2.13.0.0-64bit
  • TortoiseGit-LanguagePack-2.13.0.0-64bit-ru
  • git 2.32.1.windows.2

Please provide any additional information below.

You can get exactly the same behavior by copying the text from the commit message with the Russian text by Right click on commit - Copy to clipboard - Messages. Repeated on older versions. At least a couple of years I think.
