Git segment icon/branch missing with Powerlevel10k_rainbow on WSL 2

What happened?

I installed Oh my posh on WSL Debian using this blog. Everything seems to work fine except themes that use some icons. I have only experienced it with git so far. When I use powerlevel10k_rainbow, I do not get Github icon, neither the branch name. However, when I use powerlevel10k_classic then I do get branch name. Any other theme that should display github icon fails in the same way. I do get however icon for python. Not sure what is missing in some setup or configuration. I am setting up ZSH, oh-my-posh for the first time, so I might have missed some pre-requisite, but did not see anywhere in the documentation.

While generating log, I noticed that below command works with full path. But if I give ~/.poshtheme..... then it gives an error that file not found

Oh My Posh Error: stat ~/.poshthemes/powerlevel10k_rainbow.omp.json: no such file or directory

oh-my-posh --debug --shell uni --config="/home/arundeep/.poshthemes/powerlevel10k_rainbow .omp.json"

Thanks for help or pointing me to the correct configuration

Theme

powerlevel10k_rainbow or anyone that should display git icon e.g. jandedobbeleer

What OS are you seeing the problem on?

Linux

Which shell are you using?

zsh

Log output

oh-my-posh --debug --shell uni --config="/home/arundeep/.poshthemes/powerlevel10k_rainbow
.omp.json"

@arundeep78 the problem seems to be git. The command git -C --no-optional-locks -c core.quotepath=false -c color.status=false status -unormal --branch --porcelain=2 errors with exit code 129. I see the -C parameter isn't filled in, which makes it fail.

[JanDeDobbeleer]

@arundeep78 did a small fix, BUT, you might also want to update git.

[arundeep78]

@JanDeDobbeleer Thanks for fast response. So I can update Oh-my-posh with new release using this command?

sudo wget https://github.com/JanDeDobbeleer/oh-my-posh/releases/latest/download/posh-linux-amd64 -O /usr/local/bin/oh-my-posh

When I tried it, the issue still remains.

apt install git says that git is the latest version on this Debian instance.

Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done git is already the newest version (1:2.11.0-3+deb9u7).

[arundeep78]

I ran the debug again and noticed that the error message you pointed out has changed now to below message

2021/12/21 22:11:39 error: runCommand cmd.Start() failed with 'Unknown option: --no-optional-locks usage: git [--version] [--help] [-C ] [-c name=value] [--exec-path[=]] [--html-path] [--man-path] [--info-path] [-p | --paginate | --no-pager] [--no-replace-objects] [--bare] [--git-dir=] [--work-tree=] [--namespace=] [] ' 2021/12/21 22:11:39 runCommand duration: 1.534888ms, args: git -C /home/arundeep/projects/experiments/test/ --no-optional-locks -c core.quotepath=false -c color.status=false status -unormal --branch --porcelain=2

[JanDeDobbeleer]

@arundeep78 git 2.11 is 5 years old. I don't care what Debian says, that's simply not OK.

This could do the trick (didn't validate):

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:git-core/ppa -y
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install git -y
git --version

[arundeep78]

@JanDeDobbeleer Sorry, I just installed this Debian yesterday on WSL2 and naively assumed that it is latest. Just checked that it was Debian 9/stretch!! Upgrading to Debian 10 then to 11. I should have updated git as well . I will check after upgrade and will update you.

[arundeep78]

@JanDeDobbeleer It is working now after 2 upgrades of Debian and your help. Thanks a lot

[JanDeDobbeleer]

No need to say sorry. Good to hear it's resolved!
