What steps will reproduce the problem?

Set "Font for log message" to Courier New.
Do Commit and type chinese and english words in log message.

The font of all english word are Courier New, but the font of english word 
which behind chinese word is wrong. (See attached file.)

The text area in Log Dialog is RichTextBox, not Scintilla.

Another information:

It's OK in message text box of commit dialog.

It's OK partially in message of Git Command Progress dialog.
(The "success" blue message is ok at last line.)

Could you please tell me what's difference between "Accepted" and "Started" 
about the status of issue?

And between "Invalid" and "Done"?

Thanks.

"That's by design.
What you see is known as "font linking" which happens automatically with
the rich edit control version 2 and higher (the one used to show the log
messages in the log dialog).
http://msdn.microsof​t.com/en-us/library/​windows/desktop/bb78​7873%28v=vs
.85%29.as​px

Now, about font linking:
Usually a font does not cover all possible unicode glyphs but only some
of them. If a font does not have the glyph you want to draw, an ugly box
is drawn instead.
Font linking prevents those ugly boxes by using another font instead
which has that glyph. Which font is chosen is dependent on your system
and what fonts you have installed.
After a 'better' font has been chosen to draw that glyph, the new font
is used until that font does not have a glyph to draw.

You can usually avoid this situation by installing the "support for
asian languages" in the windows region settings. That will install
better fonts so that the chosen font actually has those glyphs and font
linking isn't necessary anymore."

Is it possible that replace rich edit control to other control such as 
Scintilla?

Please don't set status to WontFix.

Fix it only in Log dialog is good enough for me.

And I can wait.
