We assume that the commit log messages are uninterpreted sequences of non-NUL bytes (see Documentation/i18n.txt). However the assumption does not really stand out and it's quite easy to set an editor to save in a NUL-included encoding. Currently we silently cut at the first NUL we see. Make it more obvious that NUL is not welcome by refusing to create such commits. Those who deliberately want to create them can still do with hash-object. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@xxxxxxxxx> --- This is from UTF-16 in commit message discussion [1] a few months ago. I don't want to resurrect the discussion again. However I think it's a good idea to stop users from shooting themselves in this case, especially at porcelain level. There were no comments on this patch previously. So, any comments this time ? Should I drop it?
