I do not disagree with a desire to help fixing the unicode insanity on that platform, but I suspect that check-ref-format is a wrong place to tackle the issue. You would need a similar filter for outputs from the likes of ls-files and "diff --name-only", iow, anything that deal with pathnames, no? It would have be something like "check-ref-format --print | iconv ..." pipeline (conceptually, if not forcing the pipeline to the end users, that is). Also are people happy with "--print"? I was waiting for others to reword it to "--normalize" or something like that. In your documentation you explain it to "canonicalize", and in your tests you name the output "normalized". I am fine with either wording, but would like to see us using only one, not both.
