Hi,
I have some files like "Lüftung.txt" in my repository. The strange thing
is that I can pull / add / commit / push those files without problem but
git-status always complains that thoes files are untraced (but not
missing). My assumption is that it's a problem with the way MacOSX
stores the file names (decomposed UTF-8). So something like
"Lüftung.txt" becomes "Lüftung.txt".
It seems that git-status does two things:
1. Find files under version control (i.e. search for missing files)
2. Find files not under version control (i.e. search for untracked files)
I guess that the first look-up succeeds because MacOS X converts
composed UTF-8 to decomposed UTF-8 when searching for a file. But it
seems that the second look-up takes the file names as-is (decomposed)
without converting them to composed UTF-8.
Is there an easy way to fix this behaviour? It's really annoying to see
all those "untracked" files that are already under version control when
executing a git-status.
Regards,
Mark
