Re: [PATCH 3/2] attribute "coding": specify blob encoding

Quoting Junio C Hamano [off-list ref]:

This teaches "diff hunk header" function about custom character
encoding per path via gitattributes(5) so that it can sensibly
chomp a line without truncating a character in the middle.

Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <redacted>

 * This is not intended for serious inclusion, but was done more
   as a demonstration of the concept, hence [3/2].

Why not?  It looks a useful addition for us Japanese people.

+static struct {
+	const char *coding;
+	sane_truncate_fn fn;
+} builtin_truncate_fn[] = {
+	{ "euc-jp", truncate_euc_jp },
+	{ "utf-8", NULL },
+};

Can you also do JIS and Shift JIS?  I ask because many of my old notes are in Shift JIS and I think it is the same for many other people.
