There was a bug, but I'm not sure it's relevant here:

You *should* be able to access the file via direct URL, regardless of
how many special characters you've used in its name. Just percent-
encode the characters in UTF-8. If you are serving the repository via
HTTP, access the directory containing this file in the web browser,
then click the filename. Now you can copy the already-encoded URL to
this file from the browser address bar. If you're serving via another
access method, paste the filename into, for example, Google search in
your browser, then grab the encoded version from the resulting search
URL.
