Issue
Using hyper on windows with git bash inside and TERM set to cygwin.
Setup: Set up an SSH connection myconnection (name doesn't matter) in your ssh config that will use an encrypted key that will prompt for an unlock password.
Reproduction steps: Run ssh myconnection and press ctrl-c when prompted for the key password. Input is now invisible, and the output error message is mangled.
Workaround: run reset after triggered but otherwise will stay invisible.
Notes: Doesn't reproduce on conemu or mintty using TERM=cygwin

No source file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reproducing the issue with Hyper on Windows, Git Bash, TERM=cygwin, and an SSH key password prompt, then compare behavior before and after Ctrl-C. Done means input is visible and the error output is not mangled, without running reset.
