abapGit uses SIL and MIT licensed fonts, they are included in the distribution as a MIME object. This includes MIME objects:
- ZABAPGIT_ICON_FONT - font in WOFF format containing the custom icon set. WOFF is used due to compatibility, SAP GUI for Windows reuse IE (11)
- ZABAPGIT_ICON_FONT_CSS - CSS icon map
To add an icon to the icon set follow the next procedure:
1. You need `nodejs` installed (version 10 at the time of this doc creation)
2. Download this repo https://github.com/sbcgua/abapgit-icon-font
3. Run `npm install`
4. Download Font Awesome free version from [here](https://fontawesome.com/download)
5. Copy new SVGs to `svg` folder of the repo
6. Run `npm run build`, this will generate `woff` and `css` files in the `build` dir
7. Upload them to the system via SMW0 to the respective objects
8. Preferable commit the change in a separate commit
Please **mind the licensing** when adding icons not from Font Awesome
P.S. Alternatively you can use [w3mipoller](https://github.com/sbcgua/abap_w3mi_poller) for upload step
