I think it is the right approach. As I repeatedly said (not that repeating things makes them right) on this list, I think that the interpretation of what is in commit log is a policy issue that is local to each project. > (And that still leaves the question open what to do about patches and > pulls, but if people mainly worry about newly written commit messages > itself, then at least that part is unambiguous). Pulls are "too late, sorry you have to live with it"; for patches, mailinfo and am have -u (I do not remember if I added it to applymbox -- I do not use applymbox anymore myself). Maybe we should make -u the default and countermand with -U to encourage the use of utf8 further?
