Re: [PATCH] gitweb: use decode_utf8 directly

The cause is apparently that decode_utf8() returns undef for invalid

decode("utf8") does.

That may be considered an Encode bug since we are running a fairly old
version (1.99, coming with Debian 3.1), but I'd rather not upgrade
perl on the server. Could the patch be reverted, or done differently?

Could you put modern (without this decode_utf8 bug) version of Encode.pm
in the directory with gitweb.cgi, so gitweb uses new local version and
not the one that is installed system-wide?
