`git status` prints way too much whitespace before each file

Question

I'm sorry if this problem is phrased somewhat strange, but I am kind of lost here and don't even know how to google this issue.

Running git status prints the usual list of modified files, but it adds so much whitespace before each file that only the first character is printed on the current line... This happens regardless of my terminal/window width in both powershell and wsl.

Resizing the window:

Now running git status again in the resized window again increases the whitespace such that only a single character is printed before wrapping...

I am puzzled, as this happened at random without me knowingly changing any kind of config. Plus, git branch etc works just fine.
