Learned that this occurs in Git Bash for windows. When using Powershell this error does not occur.

I get the same error when logging in from Git bash and from cmd prompt. And @bcaton85 is right. Doesnt happen in Powershell

Logging on to GRPC ingress is also problematic.

$ argocd login $GRPC_INGRESS --insecure
