In the manual, it says,  Monotone's transmission and storage forms are

Now does this apply to file contents?  On my system everything is
Unicode by default.  Does it get converted to 7-bit ASCII for storage?

The manual is out of date.  Database storage is binary, 8-bit clean,

Wow, how old is that?
I began using mtn a good couple of years ago, and all I remember about storage (I don't remember where I read it) is that I was pleasantly surprised by the fact that content was *always* using binary diffs and only using text for merging or annotating or so…
