Hi, maybe this helps you reproduce. I think I should have committed before
doing the second changes but I still got the error message and the two

Is it possible that the å character is coming from a UTF-16 encoding and is not representable in UTF-8? I'm wondering whether the name has a double-byte representation where one of the bytes is null, resulting in a truncated file name coming from readdir(). The file name would not be representable on some platforms that do not support UTF-16 path names.
I don't think that's the case (the angstrom is present in UTF-8 [1]).
I think it's another UTF-8 precomposed/decomposed bug. As far as I
was able to test it happens as soon as you have a precomposed character
in the folder name. I observed the same behaviour with a folder named
"folderü", for example. I also tried 'git -c add.interactive.usebuiltin restore -p .'
to see if the new experimental builtin add-interactive has the same problem,
and it does (though the error is less verbose).
Anyway as you show with 'git status', it's not just 'git add -p' that is
faulty, it's deeper than that, I would say.
Cheers,
Philippe.
