boxes with question marks on WSL

[Dragon-Of-Dojima]

I've cloned the repo to my home directory on Windows Subsystem for Linux, added the but I cannot see the icons. I see boxes with question marks. I put this:

if [ -f "$HOME/.bash-git-prompt/gitprompt.sh" ]; then
    GIT_PROMPT_ONLY_IN_REPO=1
    source $HOME/.bash-git-prompt/gitprompt.sh
fi

at the bottom of the .bashrc file just before the export statements. How can I get the icons?

I have the same issue.

If this is what I think it is with 3 diamond shaped boxes with ? in them, then I've seen this also. I inquired on this and never got any kind of reply from anyone.

I think this is not an issue of bash-git-promt but is seems related to the following Windows Console issue: Add emoji support to Windows Console

@Dragon-Of-Dojima , @igramul what terminal do you use (PowerShell, cmd, Terminal-app, ...?)

Back then I was using Git Bash

Installing and using one of the Nerd Fonts fixed this for me.

Hello,

In the issue #517, the maintainer has announced his retirement from this project.

I forked it on https://github.com/rakotomandimby/bash-git-prompt, and if this issue is still relevant, I kindly ask you to re-create it over there, and provide the pull request over there.

Thank you
