 Note that the svn add will fail if I don't set LANG=C.UTF-8.

As per 1.7.0-62 announcement, UTF-8 should be the default locale for
LANG=C so LANG=C should work there as well.

But of course the best value to use is the language of the user + UTF,
e.g. in my case LANG=it_IT.UTF-8, and in the case of the OP I guess
LANG=de_DE.UTF-8.

Yes, it should, but unfortunately it depends on whether svn has its
own idea of what C means.

That's right. C.UTF-8 is not (yet) available on most other systems.
Debian are only just introducing it, and it's intended as a neutral
fallback only, when the user's language isn't known.

Hi,

David Rothenberger wrote:

 % export LANG=C.UTF-8

This was the solution - issuing that commando made it work.

LANG=de.UTF-8 also seems to work.

So I'll add this to my bashrc. Thanks a lot.

Markus

A better place for this is cygwin.bat for the console, or the Text
page of the options dialog for mintty. This ensures that bash itself
is run with the same setting. That's because the locale of a process
is determined by the environment settings at process startup.

subversion and utf-8

2009-10-14 Thread Markus Schaber
Hi,
 
I'm running a just freshly updated cygwin 1.7 on vista64, and suffer from the 
utf-8 problem described for 1.5 at 
http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2008-08/msg00536.html

You announced the stability of 1.7 for 11/2009 - can I hope that this issue 
will be fixed in the mean time?

Thanks a lot,
Markus

I am not having problems using Subversion 1.6.5 and Cygwin 1.7.0-62. 
However, my knowledge of character sets is very limited, so let me 
describe what I did.


First, I made a repository.

% svnadmin create repos
% R=file://`pwd`/repos

Then, I checked it out into a working directory.

% svn co $R wc

Then, I created a couple of files with non-ASCII characters in their 
name. (Since I don't normally do this, I just copied some words from 
your email's signature.)


% export LANG=C.UTF-8
% touch wc/Burgstraße wc/Geschäftsführer wc/für
% svn add wc/*
% svn ci -m '' wc

Note that the svn add will fail if I don't set LANG=C.UTF-8.

I checked this out into a different working directory.

% svn co $R wc2

I then tried changing a file in one working directory and updating the 
other.


% date  wc/für
% svn ci -m '' wc
% svn up wc2

All this worked fine on my system as long as LANG=C.UTF-8. I tried it 
from the console window and from MinTTY.
