If UTF-16[BE|LE] or UCS-4[BE|LE] encodings are used with git log, the git completes successfully but commit messages and author information are not shown. I suggest that git should fail with fatal error if such zero producing encoding is used. If the incorrect encoding name is used, the git log does not perform any re-encoding, but just display commits in their native encoding. I suggest that git should fail with fatal error in this case as well.
