[PATCH/RFC 0/2] post-receive-email: declaring and consistently using one output encoding

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



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?
