And git guys, please start to think again about your insane options,

Can git maintainer(s) comment on this please?
It's easy to say "just do the right thing", and ignore reality.
git commit logs have always been "8-bit data". It's actually gitweb that

such.
I agree that UTF-8 is a good idea, but that's a totally different
argument.
