Export LANGUAGE=en_US can solve this problem.

But I prefer using another version of revapi plugin.

I don’t necessarily know of another version of the Revapi plug-in for gradle. Have any input on that subject @KarlManong?

Also, what happens if you set the lang
Ideally we can get them to fix this upstream?

And what is your LANGUAGE configured to or how can we otherwise replicate this?

[KarlManong]

I'm not familiar with Revapi, so can't give an idea.

My computer is running as this LANGUAGE

$ echo $LANGUAGE
zh_CN:en_US:en

Just set the $LANGUAGE can reproduce the issue.

Maybe we can comment the build doc which set the LANGUAGE before building.

By the way, according https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10633564/how-does-one-change-the-language-of-the-command-line-interface-of-git, there has some other ways to change the output language of the Git.

Hope I have described clearly. Sorry for My English.

[kbendick]

No worries about your English.

I think it’s best in the long run to ask the project to set the language if they depend on the output string (which they do).

For now, if running with LANGUAGE before the build helps, we can consider adding that the the FAQ for users who hit this issue. We can also set the LANGUAGE value in the GitHub actions, though that won’t fix the local.

I’ll try reproducing and then also commenting on the issue in the project that you opened.

Definitely at least making note of this in our documentation in an FAQ would be good. Thanks @KarlManong!

[KarlManong]

Yes, FAQ would be good.

Thank U too.
