Hmph, but back in v2.20 days, you did have IME? In any case, if I were in such a situation to need my name spelled differently depending on the project I work on, I would probably use $ git config --global user.name <simplified-name> $ cd <repository of git> $ git config user.name <name-with-accents> or the other way around (depends on which projects your focus is on). But perhaps that is not so useful to your situation?
