 Personally, I would use LC_ALL=C. Maybe that's good for you, too?

After reading [1], I've ended up installing LANG=C into my user's
environment variables -- so far so good, thanks for the tip!

 I guess this would also make for a fine opportunity to add an option
 to the installer to switch the localization off?

I dunno.
While this definitely would be useful for some folks (mostly
old-school, like we do) but the problem with this setting is that it's
not specific to Git and can result in unpredictable behaviour in other
parts of the system.  Hence this option, if implemented, should somehow
be clearly marked as system-wide in the installer UI.

Just for the record.
I created the file lang.sh with contents
export LC_ALL=C
in
/etc/profile.d
which also fixes the problem. And also survives new versions of git.

 Thanks.
 It seems that this link:

 doesn't point to the latest release.
 
 Might be because the tags have the same date ?

Wooops. Sorry for being so slow (been interviewing today). It should be correct 
now, can you verify, please?

Thanks,
