Package: gitweb
Version: 1:1.5.5.1-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Subject says it all. In the current code, gitweb uses utf8 only in stdout.
As a result, included files like indextext.html appears garbled if it
contains utf8 characters. The attached patch works fine without any
observed side-effects.
