-			TODO
+			MinTTY is the terminal emulator that comes by default with Git
+			for Windows.  It has known issues with gh's ability to prompt a
+			user for input.
+
+			There are a few workarounds to make gh work with MinTTY:
+
+			- Reinstall Git for Windows. 
+			  Be sure to check the box "Enable experimental support for pseudo consoles".
+
+			- Use a different terminal emulator with Git for Windows like Windows Terminal or cmd.exe.
+			  Try running "C:\Program Files\Git\bin\bash.exe" in one of those other terminal emulators.
+
+			- Prefix invocations of gh with winpty, eg: "winpty gh auth login".
+			  NOTE: this can lead to some UI bugs.
