Is it possible add Commnad() in Header function?

[Jaehaks]

Hi

I try to execute git command with Command() in Header children
I define this function in setup()

function Header:gitbranch()
  local status, err = Command('git')
                      :args({'--no-optional-locks', '-c', 'core.quotePath='})
                      :args({'status'})
                      :args({'--ignore-submodules=dirty', '--branch', '--show-stash', '--ahead-behind'})
                      :args({'2>nul'})
                      :stdout(Command.PIPED)
                      :output()

  local branch = get_branch(status)  -- get branch string 
  return ui.Line{
    ui.Span(branch)
  }
end

It doesn't work without any response.
If I set the command with io.popen instead of Commnad(), it works well.
but io.popen is too slow in Windows to call this function periodically.

Is there any way to execute git command asynchronously?

If you want to show git branch name in the header, you can check out git.yazi, see how it is implemented there. I think you should make a seperate function and then do Header.children_add(...) for it to work as you want. You can also use starship.yazi, since it automatically shows git branch in a nice formatted way.
