Hello, when I try to amend a commit with git gui that is properly signed-off by me and hit "Commit", I get commit-tree failed: <sha1 sum> Warning: commit message does not conform to UTF-8. You may ... The commit was done with git-commit, I have zeisberg@cassiopeia:~$ set | grep -E '^L(ANG|C_)' LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 and the ö is properly displayed in the commit message text box before hitting Commit. When I remove the ö, I can commit (and re-amend on the cmdline). I'm using: zeisberg@cassiopeia:~/gsrc/linux-2.6$ git version git version 1.5.1.1.190.g74474 zeisberg@cassiopeia:~/gsrc/linux-2.6$ git gui version git-gui version 0.6.5.10.g845d3 I don't know tcl/tk very well, so for now you only get a report and no patch :-( Best regards Uwe -- Uwe Kleine-König http://www.google.com/search?q=5%2B7 - 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
