Chevron rendering issues?

[alexgorbatchev]

Description

The README screenshot shows beautiful chevrons for the collapsible sections, however after installing I just see v characters used instead. I do use nerdfonts and everything else in my nvim renders as it should, except neogit.

I found the same issue in a youtube video from March 2024:

https://youtu.be/K-FKqXj8BAQ?t=376

Neovim version

❯ v --version NVIM v0.10.0 Build type: Release LuaJIT 2.1.1716656478 Run "nvim -V1 -v" for more info

Operating system and version

macOS 14.5

Steps to reproduce

return {
  {
    "NeogitOrg/neogit",
    dependencies = {
      "nvim-lua/plenary.nvim", -- required
      "sindrets/diffview.nvim", -- optional - Diff integration

      -- Only one of these is needed, not both.
      "nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim", -- optional
      -- "ibhagwan/fzf-lua", -- optional
    },
    config = true,
    keys = {
      {
        "<leader>gn",
        function()
          require("neogit").open()
        end,
        { desc = "Open Neogit" },
      },
    },
  },
}

Expected behavior

Should render chevrons correctly

Actual behavior

Uses v and > characters instead

Minimal config

-- NOTE: See the end of this file if you are reporting an issue, etc. Ignore all the "scary" functions up top, those are
-- used for setup and other operations.
local M = {}

local base_root_path = vim.fn.fnamemodify(debug.getinfo(1, "S").source:sub(2), ":p:h") .. "/.min"
function M.root(path)
  return base_root_path .. "/" .. (path or "")
end

function M.load_plugin(plugin_name, plugin_url)
  local package_root = M.root("plugins/")
  local install_destination = package_root .. plugin_name
  vim.opt.runtimepath:append(install_destination)

  if not vim.loop.fs_stat(package_root) then
    vim.fn.mkdir(package_root, "p")
  end

  if not vim.loop.fs_stat(install_destination) then
    print(string.format("> Downloading plugin '%s' to '%s'", plugin_name, install_destination))
    vim.fn.system({
      "git",
      "clone",
      "--depth=1",
      plugin_url,
      install_destination,
    })
    if vim.v.shell_error > 0 then
      error(string.format("> Failed to clone plugin: '%s' in '%s'!", plugin_name, install_destination),
        vim.log.levels.ERROR)
    end
  end
end

---@alias PluginName string The plugin name, will be used as part of the git clone destination
---@alias PluginUrl string The git url at which a plugin is located, can be a path. See https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-on-the-Server-The-Protocols for details
---@alias MinPlugins table<PluginName, PluginUrl>

---Do the initial setup. Downloads plugins, ensures the minimal init does not pollute the filesystem by keeping
---everything self contained to the CWD of the minimal init file. Run prior to running tests, reproducing issues, etc.
---@param plugins? table<PluginName, PluginUrl>
function M.setup(plugins)
  vim.opt.packpath = {}                      -- Empty the package path so we use only the plugins specified
  vim.opt.runtimepath:append(M.root(".min")) -- Ensure the runtime detects the root min dir

  -- Install required plugins
  if plugins ~= nil then
    for plugin_name, plugin_url in pairs(plugins) do
      M.load_plugin(plugin_name, plugin_url)
    end
  end

  vim.env.XDG_CONFIG_HOME = M.root("xdg/config")
  vim.env.XDG_DATA_HOME = M.root("xdg/data")
  vim.env.XDG_STATE_HOME = M.root("xdg/state")
  vim.env.XDG_CACHE_HOME = M.root("xdg/cache")

  -- NOTE: Cleanup the xdg cache on exit so new runs of the minimal init doesn't share any previous state, e.g. shada
  vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd("VimLeave", {
    callback = function()
      vim.fn.system({
        "rm",
        "-r",
        "-f",
        M.root("xdg")
      })
    end
  })
end

-- NOTE: If you have additional plugins you need to install to reproduce your issue, include them in the plugins
-- table within the setup call below.
M.setup({
  plenary = "https://github.com/nvim-lua/plenary.nvim.git",
  telescope = "https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim",
  diffview = "https://github.com/sindrets/diffview.nvim",
  neogit = "https://github.com/NeogitOrg/neogit"
})
-- WARN: Do all plugin setup, test runs, reproductions, etc. AFTER calling setup with a list of plugins!
-- Basically, do all that stuff AFTER this line.
require("neogit").setup() -- For instance, setup Neogit

-- my lazyvim config is in steps to repro, it's default config

I don't assume people have nerdfonts installed, but theres a config exposed where you can set the fold icons to whatever you like :)
