commit-email.pl and non-ascii chars

[Lübbe Onken <l....@rac.de>]

Hi Folks,

since german people like to use german characters in their commit messages,
these characters are garbled, when commit-email.pl sends out the mail, like:

"Inifile f?\195?\188r ?\195?\156bersetzungstool mit eingecheckt"
instead of
"Inifile für Übersetzungstool mit eingecheckt"

I assume it's just a simple one-liner in the perl script that would properly
decode the \195 characters, but since I'm a perl illiterate, I ask for help.

Please...

Thanks
-Lübbe

Lübbe, assuming that this isn't a local configuration problem, you might want to 
try out tools/hook-scripts/mailer/mailer.py to see if avoids similar problems. 
If not, please file a bug in the issue tracker 
<http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectIssues>.

Thanks, Dan
