How to change the default output encoding?

[fdncred]

Nushell uses rust strings which are utf-8 already so there's no need to change anything in nushell to get utf-8.

But seems not work for git

I can use chcp 65001 for workaround, but I have to set it every new nushell window.

So, that means your question is how to set your terminal to 65001 every time. I've googled it before and that's what I did for my Windows machine. So I know it's possible. IIRC, there was some registry setting I had to change.

Sounds like it's probably the region settings control panel, where you can set UTF-8 as the "non-Unicode" codepage (remember: Unicode in Windows means wide char UTF-16)

All Windows console hosts including Windows Terminal use the system code page encoding, not wide chars, which is why you have to chcp

I'd prefer use nushell it's way, not by calling chcp. Such as powershell can change with $OutputEncoding = [Console]::OutputEncoding = [System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8, and can be added to profile

I have tried the regional settings before, but the impact is too great. Some software does not support it, which will also cause the entire interface to become garbled.
