Re: GIT character codecs

I suspect you could just take the default from LANG and LC_CTYPE

problematic cases have a per-window override menu.

Or, if you want to be super-flexible, just try to decode as UTF-8.
Success? fine -- otherwise use whatever your application's default is
set to, or your local encoding (which may of course also be UTF-8), or
fall back to 8859-15.
