Re: git archive --format zip utf-8 issues

René Scharfe [off-list ref] writes:

"git 1" is the patch "archive-zip: support UTF-8 paths" added, which
let's archive-zip make use of the UTF-8 flag.  "git 2" is "git 1" plus
the patch "archive-zip: declare creator to be Unix for UTF-8
paths". Both have been posted before.  "git 3" is "git 1" plus the new
patch "archive-zip: write extended timestamp".

Let's drop patch 2 (Unix as creator) and keep patches 1 (UTF-8 flag)
and 3 (mtime field) to make archive-zip record non-ASCII filenames in
a portable way.  It's not perfect, but I don't know how to do any
better given that Windows' built-in ZIP functionality expects
filenames in the local code page and with an international audience
for projects distributing ZIP files.

Thanks.
