Git commit messages must be English only: no CJK characters (no 中文/量词/example glyphs like 第一封信) and no em/en dashes (— –). Use plain ASCII punctuation (comma, colon, parentheses, ...). The same applies to PR titles for consistency.
Why: the user (a maintainer of readest/readest) keeps the project's git history English-only and clean.
How to apply: when a fix is about Chinese/CJK text, describe the concept in English in the commit subject/body (e.g. "measure-word prose", "the classifiers for 'letter' and 'book'") instead of pasting the glyphs. Keep the concrete CJK examples and screenshots in the PR body / code / tests, where they aid understanding — that is fine. First seen on PR #4660 (txt-chapter-measure-word-4658), where "量词" in the subject had to be amended to "measure-word".
