Re: [PATCH] Reencode committer info to utf-8 before formatting mail header

The add_user_info function formats the commit as a mail message, and
uses add_rfc2047 to format the From: line.  The add_rfc2047 assumes
that the string is encoded as utf-8.
pretty_print_commit() labels the commit log message not just the
author name also as UTF-8 when doing plain_non_ascii.

It might make more sense to just set the log_output_encoding to
be always UTF-8 when generating an e-mail output, in
git-format-patch.

This feels fishy...
