How do I change charset / locale in conemu?

I am using gitbash via conemu.

I have a charset issue where the chars look wrong in gitbash via conemu and gitbash directly.

I fixed it in gitbash by setting the locale in .minttyrc to ..

BoldAsFont=-1
Locale=en_US
Charset=UTF-8

But this doesn't fix it in gitbash when launched via conemu.

Any ideas where I would change conemu settings to address locale or to get it to pick up .minttyrc settings?

As mentioned in "git log output encoding issues on Windows 10 command prompt", can you check your conemu session is:

• using the Consolas font

• has set the LC_ALL variable:

  set LC_ALL=C.UTF-8
  

Check then if git bash still display the wrong charset.
