And this make me think about another (completely unrelated) point : how are encodings handled in git ? IIRC git is encoding-agnostic (even worse — but I may be wrong — it's encoding-whatsthatidontcare ;-)). I know Objective-Git has a tendency to read everything as UTF-8 (we have #195 and #202 about that). I'm asking because each time I write `NSUTF8StringEncoding` somewhere I can think of a hundred reasons it's wrong ;-).
