Good point (even if your commit message has lines much longer than 72 chars, ASCII ones at that). But how certain are you at that point that the authors are in UTF-8 format? IOW what encoding conversions were possibly performed up to that point? You might want to make it easier on possible reviewers by putting that discussion into the commit message.
