For now either way is fine with me. If the situation changes I'll let you know. I'm surprised git-send-email can't get it purely utf8 correctly. I wonder if there is some issue with how it gets your name string for the commit author etc. I wonder if getting it into your global GIT config file in proper UTF8 encoding would fix things.
