It works for me: tmp $ mkdir z tmp $ cd z z $ git init Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/z/.git/ z $ be --full-version 1.0.0 revision: 1e0967ab82d8541413e1dfe4d2e78f1008aa9c5b date: 2011-02-24 committer: W. Trevor King storage version: Bugs Everywhere Directory v1.4 z $ be init Using git for revision control. BE repository initialized. z $ be new "Svenska tecken åäö" Created bug with ID 82d/3ca z $ be list 82d/3ca:om: Svenska tecken åäö Unicode encoding is a bit tricky though, so I may have mixed something up. It is also possible they your environment is not configured correctly. There used to be a BugDir-wide configuration setting to override your system encoding, but they were removed because it was unclear which part of BE should be responsible for reading them (see bug bea/e30). There is currently no BE-specific way to configure the default encoding, as it is really a system-level issue. The encoding for commandline IO is determined by libbe.util.encoding.get_encoding() which uses locale.getpreferredencoding() or, if that is not set, sys.getdefaultencoding(). The locale method depends on the LANG environmental variable [1]. On my system: $ echo $LANG en_US.UTF-8 $ python Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Mar 16 2011, 22:37:38) [GCC 4.4.4] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import locale >>> import sys >>> locale.getpreferredencoding() 'UTF-8' >>> sys.getdefaultencoding() 'ascii' But if I unset LANG: $ LANG='' python -c 'import locale; print locale.getpreferredencoding()' ANSI_X3.4-1968 Locale strings are different on Windows [2], so while I use en_US.UTF-8, for Swedish on Windows you would use something like swedish_sweden.1252 or sve_swe.1252 with [3] C:\temp\slask4>set LANG=swedish_sweden.1252 I'm not sure this will work, as I have no real experience with encodings on Windows. You might also try PYTHONIOENCODING [4], but preliminary tests on my system show that not effecting get_encoding(). If none of the above environmental variables help, it looks like there is some more elaborate code in bzrlib.osutils and mercurial.encoding that we can look to for inspiration.
