Git Encoding Strategy: At the core level, git is character
encoding agnostic. http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/v1.5.0.2/git-log.html#_discussion
Git Encoding Strategy:
Git Encoding Strategy: filename
Git Encoding Strategy: filename blob contents
Git Encoding Strategy: filename blob contents commit message
Git Encoding Strategy: filename #=> tree blob blob contents commit
message
Git Encoding Strategy: filename #=> tree blob blob contents #=>
blob commit message
Git Encoding Strategy: filename #=> tree blob blob contents #=>
blob commit message #=> commit tag
Git Encoding Strategy:
Git Encoding Strategy: no need #=> blob contents
Git Encoding Strategy: no need #=> blob contents need #=>
commit message, filename
Git Encoding Strategy: no need #=> blob contents need #=>
commit message, filename IMHO: #=> hg hybird strategy & svn
Ruby Encoding: detect encoding:
Ruby Encoding: detect encoding:the longer the better
Ruby Encoding: detect encoding:the longer the better filename
Ruby Encoding: detect encoding:the longer the better filename blob contents
Ruby Encoding: detect encoding:the longer the better filename blob contents
commit message
Ruby Encoding: detect encoding:the longer the better #=> too short
filename blob contents commit message
Ruby Encoding: detect encoding:the longer the better #=> too short
#=> good to detect filename blob contents commit message
Ruby Encoding: detect encoding:the longer the better #=> too short
#=> good to detect #=> not long enough filename blob contents commit message
Ruby Encoding: Character encoding detection:
Ruby Encoding: Character encoding detection: charlock_holmes
Ruby Encoding: Character encoding detection: charlock_holmes rchardet19
Ruby Encoding: Character encoding detection: charlock_holmes #=> libicu rchardet19
Ruby Encoding: Character encoding detection: charlock_holmes #=> libicu rchardet19 #=>

Ruby Encoding:
Ruby Encoding: blob contents:
Ruby Encoding: blob contents: filename and commit message:
Ruby Encoding: blob contents: filename and commit message: detect and
encode
Ruby Encoding: blob contents: filename and commit message: detect and
encode hard to deal with
