TL;DR

The issue with Markdown links rendering as full URLs instead of labels on Windows 11 with Git Bash and mintty may be related to the TERM environment variable or file path mismatches.

Guidance

• Verify that the TERM environment variable is set correctly to xterm-256color and that the terminal supports this setting.
• Check for file path mismatches in the error logs, specifically the Diagnostics file path mismatch errors, and ensure that the file paths are correctly formatted.
• Consider using the file:// protocol consistently in file paths to avoid mismatches.
• Review the MaxFileReadTokenExceededError and adjust the file reading parameters to read specific portions of the file instead of the whole file.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue seems to be related to environment variables and file paths rather than code.

Notes

The issue may be specific to the Windows 11 environment and the combination of Git Bash and mintty. The error logs suggest that there are file path mismatches and issues with reading file contents.

Recommendation

Apply a workaround by consistently using the file:// protocol in file paths and adjusting the file reading parameters to avoid exceeding the maximum allowed tokens.
