ls-tree with non-english characters

ls-tree with non-english characters

[Tajti Ákos]

Dear List,

I tried to use git ls-tree but on blob names containing non-english
characters I get a strange output. For example:

ákosű -> \303\241kos\305\261

There's no mention of this format in the manual of ls-tree. Could you please
help me on resolving this cryptic string to the original form?

Thanks in advance,
Ákos Tajti

Try with the -z option, it seems to do more than the documentation
suggests:

  $ git ls-tree HEAD
100644 blob e69de29bb2d1d6434b8b29ae775ad8c2e48c5391	"\303\241rv\303\255zt\305\261r\305\221"
  $ git ls-tree -z HEAD
100644 blob e69de29bb2d1d6434b8b29ae775ad8c2e48c5391	árvíztűrő

Russian Windows git users know this feature

git config [--global] core.quotepath false
resolves it (without -z)

and, yes, man git-config

Dear Alaxey,

thanks, I didn't know about this configuration option.
