Very entertaining, thanks. But it pretty much confirmed the line of
thinking implied by my question above... namely:
If someone says Subversion won't handle their "Unicode" files as text,
we must ask "What specific *encoding* of Unicode?"
In this case, it seems clear it was UTF-N (where N > 8). But when
responding to a bug report, one always wants to make absolutely sure
that what the reporter thinks is going on is the same as what
Subversion thinks is going on :-).
Best,
