In my suggestion I avoided rewriting the log buffer, primarily because of #2 (in addition to "read" cleanliness, such a change may break the gpg signature checking for merges). We do reencode the contents before we write it out when "encoding" is present, so logically such a rewrite of authors and committers belongs to where that happens, in pretty_print_commit(). Note that this existing rewrite is not done to the commit log buffer but is to a separate buffer meant to be used only for output. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
