Yeah I checked the same and saw that UTF8 was listed. But confused
because different opinions regarding their meanings varies. And also
that Rails would make that differentiation.
But checking the db with PgAdmin3 locally I can see this info:
CREATE DATABASE app_development
WITH OWNER = me
ENCODING = 'UTF8'
TABLESPACE = pg_default
CONNECTION LIMIT = -1;
So ultimately encoding: unicode translates into utf8
Thanks Fred!
