2.50.01 Quoting issues on git checkout command

[leak]

Do you want to request a feature or report a bug?
Potential bug but could also be misconfiguration, in the latter case I'd be thankful for pointers.

What is the current behavior?

When switching branches via toolbar the git checkout command is failing

"git" checkout "dashboard"
error: pathspec 'dashboard"' did not match any file(s) known to git.
Done

Press Enter or Esc to close console...

Notice the trailing double quote on the error line.

If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce and if possible a minimal demo of the problem.

Problem is that I cannot reproduce the issue properly, currently it is occurring on two machines (all running same versions and OS) and one where it doesn't occure.
I have already reinstalled gitext, reset the configs or compared the configs between the working and non-working machines.
Additionally I have checked the PATH variable if there are any quoted paths, but I could not find any.

When running the command inside the console tab in gitext, it is completing properly.

What is the expected behavior?

The checkout command should complete without error as it does on command line.

Environment you encounter the issue:

• GitExtensions version: 2.50.01
• GIT version: 2.14.1.windows.1
• OS version: Win10 x64

Did this work in previous version of GitExtensions (which)?
2.49.* seems to be fine

Are there any logs or stack traces available? Or screenshots?

The git command itself doesn't appear in the command log, I supposed because it is failing?

Also a screenshot doesn't provide more information, as it just contains the error I posted above:

**edit
This is the output when i use the same command including quotes from the console tab

$ git checkout "dashboard"
Switched to branch 'dashboard'
Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/dashboard'.

As it turns out the console emulator is breaking the git command.
