First: a little "why": having /usr/bin/vim as PAGER allows to enter UTF-8 commit messages quite easily, the problem is when git-log (or cg-log) is run in terminal that's not UTF-8. In my case: terminal is ISO-8859-2 and:
nelchael@nelchael ~$ cat ~/.vimrc | grep gitci au BufRead /tmp/gitci* setlocal textwidth=75 fileencoding=utf-8 encoding=utf-8 fileencodings=utf-8,default
So... having {git,cg}-log recode the log entires when displaying is quite useful. Two patches attached:
a. git-log-recode.patch - uses iconv to recode the log output to GIT_LOG_RECODE encoding b. cg-log-recode.patch - the same, but for cogito
With this patches it's possible to write UTF-8 commit messages and see them ok in non-UTF-8 terminal in log by having GIT_LOG_RECODE=iso-8859-2.
Comments?
