Pro-commit hook and color diff in email

[Matthias Fechner <id...@fechner.net>]

Hi,

I currently use svnnotify to send colored diff html commit mail from a 
post-commit hook.
But I have a problem if UTF-8 characters like German umlauts are in the 
commit messages.

They are not shown correctly in the email.

I call svnnotify with the options:

/usr/local/bin/svnnotify --repos-path "$REPOS" --revision "$REV" 
--handler HTML::ColorDiff --with-diff --encoding UTF-8 --from xx --to xx

Is this a known bug or has anyone another tool that handles this 
characters correctly?

Thanks
Matthias
