Re: git on MacOSX and files with decomposed utf-8 file names

because Microsoft C library does not work with encoding that requires
more than two bytes per character.
Indeed. On Windows, you should avoid using UTF-8 and instead use UTF-16
everywhere. That usually works better, and if you run on an NT-based
system it will convert all the data to WinAPI to UTF-16 anyway.
