Repo URL? I fail at finding it.

https://github.com/powerline/fonts

there is also an installer: https://github.com/powerline/fonts/blob/master/install.ps1

Thanks. But if I understood this correctly, these are already existing fonts patched for use with a plugin for VIM? The target audience for this project (OSFontPack) is more the average user, so I doubt it would make any sense to include those fonts.

An installer just for the powerline fonts could make more sense, but given the audience of those fonts, I doubt they would use an installer and instead stick to the existing PS installer.

This is not just used in vim, this is used in Powershell also. see https://github.com/JanJoris/oh-my-posh and https://github.com/Jaykul/PowerLine

That's a good argument. I need to think this over.
