Do you use Cyrillic in GIT?

Question

git

In GIT, you can create a commit with a message in Russian.
Is this considered normal practice? Or do our companies only use English?

Answer 1

As a team agree - so be it. For myself I write in Russian. At work too. At my last job, they wrote in English, although the company is also Russian.

Answer 2

I try to write in English even in my projects. It doesn't matter on the local machine, but on the hosts it's lazy to configure the terminal so that it correctly displays the Cyrillic alphabet, and not the krakozyabry.

Answer 3

Developers write comments in Russian, but I never use Russian myself - an old habit from the days of long work on FreeBSD, where the console was in koi8-r for a long time.
In addition, Mikrotiks do not tolerate Russian letters.

Answer 4

Almost everywhere it is customary to write in English - this is a rule of good form. More than once I met old projects with broken encoding due to Cyrillic
