This was starting to bug me, so I went off and found it.  OK, well
the encoding error anyway.  git-gui incorrectly claimed commit-tree
failed when it didn't.  But besides the point, this is the bad line:

   1294     fconfigure $msg_wt -encoding $enc -translation binary

I have had trouble in the past with trying to use that magic
-encoding flag on fconfigure to get Tcl's file channels to perform
encoding work for me.  Seems it doesn't work right or something...
so other parts of git-gui (e.g. the filename handling parts)
perform the convertfrom/convertto logic on their own... but the
commit message handling parts didn't.

They do now (git gui 0.6.5-11-gf20db5f).

Can you please test my current master branch and see if that fixes
things for you?  repo.or.cz, git-gui.git...

If it does, I'm probably going to tag that as 0.6.6 and let Junio
cut 1.5.2 with that release.
