Still, I do wonder if it would be possible to simply do the following: -binmode STDOUT, ':utf8'; +use open qw(:std :utf8); ...but it unfortunately doesn't work. It was tried in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/87129/focus=87135 to_utf8() has at least (possible) fallback if it encounters characters outside of UTF-8 coding. > - $co{'author'} = $1; > + $co{'author'} = to_utf8($1); -- Jakub Narebski Git User's Survey 2009: http://tinyurl.com/GitSurvey2009 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
