From 3713e2226bcda64513efd537f370ce4d7f767a1e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dmitry Statyvka Date: Fri, 30 Jul 2010 04:30:13 +0200 Subject: git svn: add an option to recode pathnames Introduce a new option 'svn.pathnameencoding' that instructs git svn to recode pathnames to a given encoding. It can be used by windows users and by those who work in non-utf8 locales to avoid corrupted file names with non-ascii characters.
