monotone

Issue 204: Monotone does not work with non-ANSI symbols on Windows with Russian locale

Reported by Anton Zimin, Mar 14, 2012

Steps to reproduce the problem:
-------------------------------

1. Create empty database. Setup a branch.
2. Create new folder with name in Russian ('Папка' in my case).
3. mtn add . -R

Expected result:
----------------
Folder must be included into repository.

Actual results:
---------------
C:\temp\mtntest>mtn add . -R
mtn: warning: skipping directory 'Папка' with unsupported name

Output of `mtn version --full`:

Also I've tried to manually edit _MTN/revision in UTF-8 without BOM 
this way:

format_version "1"

new_manifest [0000000000000000000000000000000000000002]

old_revision []

add_dir ""

add_dir "Папка"


Monotone reads this file as ASCII but not UTF-8:

C:\temp\mtntest>mtn status
mtn: fatal: error: failed to convert string from UTF-8 to ASCII: 
'Р?апка'
mtn: This is almost certainly a bug in monotone.
mtn: Please report this error message, the output of 'mtn version 
--full',
mtn: and a description of what you were doing to '
https://code.monotone.ca/p/mon
otone/issues/'.
mtn: wrote debugging log to C:/temp/mtntest/_MTN/debug
mtn: if reporting a bug, please include this file
