Support i18n
It seems that the display is wrong... Some chinese character shows up and eat up following ascii character. Maybe I should raise an issue on gocui ?
@TGhoul do those same characters have a fixed-width in regular use? It may be that your font isn't monospaced. I tried testing how the app behaved with some mandarin characters but they didn't even render:
I'm thinking it may be configurable via cmd, but I'm not well versed in windows
@jesseduffield I think those characters is fixed-width, my problems appear in the "Commits" window, can you do something commit and write comment with Chinese simplified characters?
@ponsfrilus @jesseduffield This issue may be related to gocui, I tested it in macOS.
This should (or could) be fixed by https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit/pull/231 Looks like there are some little glitches that still occur but this is a good step in the right direction. Please let me know how the rendering works for you all :)

Chinese character have some problems.
hi，解决了么？，好像在ubuntu下没问题
@hello-liu It's OK on Mac OS.
can you input chinese in the view ,half char no see
The filename is chinese, but it's crashed. But the content in chinese is OK.
@scutxd could you provide some steps to reproduce that issue? I'm not able to reproduce locally on the latest lazygit master branch

I have the same issue here, if you add a file which has a Chinese name, than it will shown some \xxx like text in the commit message, let me give your a screen shot.
There are two issues here: 1, see the arrow pointed as "1", the Chinese text is too width, I mean normally, one Chinese character's width equals two English character's width, but from the screen shot, it looks like it has 3 times of the English character's width.
2, the second issue the the same as the scutxd mentioned one.
Update
It looks like the Chinese character's width = 3 * English character's width.
Is it because that I set the font page as: chcp 65001, which means it is UTF8 format, and a Chinese character normally need 3 bytes.
If I change the code page to chcp 936, which is simplified Chinese, then the character width issue look OK, but there are other layout issues, see the screen shot below:
Bad view title drawing with unicode characters. · Issue #157 · jroimartin/gocui Maybe, this is some related.
@asmwarrior I'm still struggling to replicate. Is there a public repo you could point me to which I could pull down to verify the issue?

I create a sample git repo for you to test the Chinese font issue, see here: https://github.com/asmwarrior/lazygit_issue24
Thanks for making the sample repo :)
I'm not able to replicate on lazygit's latest master branch, on the iterm2 terminal in OSX:
This may be a windows specific issue. With that said it's possible that the fault lies with termbox, one of our dependencies. There's a branch I'm working on called tcell-again which switches to tcell which is better for various reasons. Are you able to see if you still get the same issue if you're using lazygit from the tcell-again branch? You'll need to clone the lazygit repo and do a go install from within the repo's root directory but otherwise it should run the same as normal lazygit

I have no experience of programming in go language. I mainly use C/C++. So for me, it may be hard to build the lazygit from the source under Windows. If you can create a simple executable file from this new branch, I can happily test it.
@asmwarrior I've just compiled this from my windows PC. Does it work for you? lazygit.zip
I tested this new binary under ComEmu, and here is the result.
With chcp 65001 setting, which means the UTF8 code page, I see still some errors, see the two images below:
and
Sometimes, the unwanted characters are shown.
With chcp 936, which is Chinese GB2312 code page, I see the frame border is not continued, but I don't see unwanted characters, see image below.
In both of the code page settings, the Chinese character width issue is fixed! This is good!
But there are still same issues that the file path is still shown as a raw hex string, as the arrow 2 pointed in comment: the https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit/issues/24#issuecomment-801076179
Git will quote "unusual" characters in the pathname.
Try git config --global core.quotepath false
