Is that a "No-No" > or is it allowed? (I assume GIT will notice). In general, git doesn't care if you change a file's encoding - that's just another content change. In practice, you may get weird effects when viewing that particular patch (as the patch is not well-formed in the new multibyte locale, and looks funky when displayed in the old locale), and emailing a patch may require care in telling git which encoding to use for the email; but that's cosmetic, and shouldn't matter in the long run. Updating the code base to uniformly use UTF-8 seems reasonable to me. -- Eric Blake, Principal Software Engineer Red Hat, Inc. +1-919-301-3266 Virtualization: qemu.org | libvirt.org -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
