I run emacs -Q.  I open eshell.  Then I try to use fossil (which is a
version control system like git) and try to put accented letters on the
commit message.  No choice of encoding seems to avoid the mangling.

c:/my/path $ alias fs 'fossil $*'
c:/my/path $ echo kkk >> encoding.txt 
c:/my/path $ fs changes
EDITED     encoding.txt

c:/my/path $ (print default-process-coding-system)
(undecided-dos . undecided-unix)

c:/my/path $ (or buffer-file-coding-system "it is nil")
it is nil

c:/my/path $ fs commit -m 'Naiveté'
[...]
Sync done, wire bytes sent: 3234  received: 309  ip: 5.161.138.46

c:/my/path $ fs timeline -n 1
=== 2022-10-02 ===
13:11:20 [febbbf0441] *CURRENT* Naiveté (user: mer tags: trunk)
--- entry limit (1) reached ---
c:/my/path $ 

Commit message has been mangled.  I then tried to set the ESHELL buffer
to utf-8 to no avail.  Eli Zaretskii kindly helped me to investigate
this in the help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org maillist.  First message was 

  <86wn9jd3sw.fsf@protonmail.com>

with subject 

  on ESHELL, utf-8 and fossil command-line commit message

> Who is mangling my command-line arguments and why?  Thank you!

You cannot use UTF-8 for encoding command-line arguments of
subprocesses on MS-Windows.  Use your system's codepage instead.  This
means make sure the Eshell buffer's value of buffer-file-coding-system
is your system codepage, not UTF-8.
