Using sage-4.7.2.alpha2 and the hg shipped with Sage, I cannot push the
patch
[http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/attachment/ticket/11820/trac_11820_undo_4777.patch]
because the username contains utf-8 non-ASCII characters:
{{{
$ hg qpush
applying trac_11820_undo_4777.patch
transaction abort!
rollback completed
cleaning up working directory...done
abort: decoding near 'André Apitzsc': 'ascii' codec can't decode byte
0xc3 in position 4: ordinal not in range(128)!
}}}
A solution is to set `HGENCODING=utf8` in `sage-env`.
----
Apply [attachment:11830.patch] to the '''scripts repository'''.

Comment(by leif):
Oh yes, this seems to catch all situations where we could run into this.
(We would have had to change the Sage library's `hg_*` commands as well if
we only changed e.g. `sage-sage`.)
Will test this later.

P.S:: The commit message lacks a ticket number... ;-)
