Re: gitweb forgets to send utf8 header for raw blob views

I have configured gitweb to use utf8, and that works for text blob views

but it does not for raw blob views like
http://dev.medozas.de/gitweb.cgi?p=hxtools;a=blob_plain;f=bin/git-forest;hb=HEAD

This can depend on configuration, both on gitweb configuration (you
can for example define $default_blob_plain_mimetype to 'text/plain;
charset=utf-8', and define $default_text_plain_charset to 'utf-8'),
and on your /etc/mime.types; gitweb does not add charset info if
mimetype is acquired from mime.types, which I guess is a mistake.
