However, what puzzles me is https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-cvs/2020-December/338684.html – this is your commit. But while in the commit, I see "Koenig" for both 'Author' and 'Commit', the 'From:' of that email shows (at least in Pipermail) instead of 'oe' the Hindi letters 'tha' and 'Gh: '*थघ*'.
Seemingly, the hook (→ https://github.com/AdaCore/git-hooks) takes the full name belonging to the user at gcc.gnu.org. And when Richard checked it for me, for your name it returns (for his locale): getent passwd tkoenig: 'Thomas Kथà¤'. or passed through 'od': …: T h o m a s K 340 244 245 340 244 230 n i g :… If I didn't make a mistake, those numbers convert to hex: E0 A3 A5 E0 A3 98 which I looks like garbage to me. At least it does not seem to make sense in neither UTF-8, UTF-16, UTF-32 and I also do not see any relation with the byte-order character. I think there are two issues: (a) Your name is wrong (should be 'ö' or safer 'oe') → I think you need to contact overseers via IRC or email overseers@ (b) Non-ASCII should probably be accepted in the flow; it looks as if the bugzilla email script mishandles/rejects this email even though it contains valid Hindi letters. Currently, the name comes from <git-hooks>/hooks/updates/emails.py: self.email_from = '%s <%s@%s>' % (get_user_full_name(), get_user_name(), from_domain) (those functions come from the 'utils' module.) e_msg['From'] = sanitized_email_address(self.email_info.email_from) (and this does a RFC2047 encoding) Tobias ----------------- Mentor Graphics (Deutschland) GmbH, Arnulfstraße 201, 80634 München / Germany Registergericht München HRB 106955, Geschäftsführer: Thomas Heurung, Alexander Walter
