Hi, These patches revisit the bug described at [1], where the sample post-receive script annoys receiving MUAs by not declaring what encoding it uses. Worse, sometimes the mails have a mixture of encodings. These patches standardize on UTF-8, but that is only for the sake of simplicity. A patch on top to make the choice of encoding customizable would probably not be too complicated, if someone is interested. Patches are targetted at 1.7.11 unless there is overwhelming interest in them landing sooner. Thanks to Alexander Gerasiov <gq@xxxxxxxxx> for the writing a patch long ago to get this started[1]. Thoughts?
