Just\nsearch for 'utf-8' and change it to what you prefer.\n\nWhat perhaps is of general interest is modifying the distributed\ngitweb.cgi to allow for easily changing the encoding on a\nper-installation basis, just like $projectroot is configurable on a\nper-installation basis.\n\nUTF-8 is still a sane default for gitweb.cgi.\n\n        nikolai\n\n-- \nNikolai Weibull: now available free of charge at http://bitwi.se/!\nBorn in Chicago, IL USA; currently residing in Gothenburg, Sweden.\nmain(){printf(&linux[\"\\021%six\\012\\0\"],(linux)[\"have\"]+\"fun\"-97);}\n"},{"id":"12341","messageId":"200511192218.33352.ismail@uludag.org.tr","threadId":"2605","inReplyTo":"20051119201406.GA8985@puritan.petwork","subject":"Re: Change encoding of RSS feed to latin-1","fromName":"Ismail Donmez","fromEmail":"ismail@uludag.org.tr","sentAt":"2005-11-19T20:18:33Z","receivedAt":"2005-11-19T20:18:33Z","isPatch":false,"sender":{"key":"ismail@uludag.org.tr","avatar":null},"body":"Saturday 19 November 2005 22:14 tarihinde, Nikolai Weibull şunları yazmıştı: \n> Ismail Donmez wrote:\n> > As the other thread grew into merits of using UTF-8 I think best fix\n> > for now is putting encoding=latin-1 into RSS feed so everyone is\n> > happy.

And no UTF-8 is not a \nsane default when the encoding used is not UTF-8. And Linus puts it it will \nbe latin-1 for long I guess.\n\nRegards,\nismail\n"}]}
