2008-10-21builtin-blame: Reencode commit messages according to git-log rules.Libravatar Alexander Gavrilov1-0/+2
Currently git-blame outputs text from the commit messages (e.g. the author name and the summary string) as-is, without even providing any information about the encoding used for the data. It makes interpreting the data in multilingual environment very difficult. This commit changes the blame implementation to recode the messages using the rules used by other commands like git-log. Namely, the target encoding can be specified through the i18n.commitEncoding or i18n.logOutputEncoding options, or directly on the command line using the --encoding parameter. Converting the encoding before output seems to be more friendly to the porcelain tools than simply providing the value of the encoding header, and does not require changing the output format. If anybody needs the old behavior, it is possible to achieve it by specifying --encoding=none.
