a few questions:

i am confused by this line:

You need a Nerd Font. The prompt uses Nerd Font glyphs for the git branch, the language logos and the prompt character. Without one, those show as empty boxes.

this sounds like a nerdfont needs to be installed manually. but that doesn't seem to be the case because it just seems to work. and i don't remember installing such a font.

i also wonder what version it is showing when not in a git repo directory.

finally, how do i edit history entries before rerunning them?

If you see the glyphs correctly, you're very likely having Nerd Font installed. If not in git, it will show https://yamafaktory.github.io/whetuu/#modules. And to edit an entry in the list, hit tab :).
Actually regarding the Nerd Font point, you might be using a terminal supporting it out the box. I'll adjust the readme and the landing page accordingly.
you are right, i am using wezterm which does bundle nerdfonts. i didn't realize that.
