Thanks.  I've always wanted to do this, but it is a bit surprising
that there is only this single instance?
There's another one in git-format-patch.txt, "Uwe Kleine-König diet", but this one does not seem to cause issues and it is difficult to replace it with ASCII only.

Should I try to find an alternative text?
No, let's keep names of people as-is, if they are not causing
issues.

What surprised me was the apparent lack of these "smarter"
apostrophes and quotes.

Thanks.
