  • Thread-topic: With working-tree-encoding and encoding attrbutes

Hello all,

 

In https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=566097, I came across

JGit does not yet support git-attribute working-tree-encoding.[1] It also does not implement git config core.checkRoundTripEncoding.[2] So putting EBCDIC-encoded files in git is going to give problems with JGit.

 

I did not find any JGit or EGit directly published information specifically when searching working-tree-encoding, encoding, or core.checkRoundTripEncoding.

 

It is, however, inferred: through omission in the FAQ, bugzilla search result comments, stack overflow comments, and also there is a line in the git documentation - https://git-scm.com/docs/gitattributes.

 

I am wondering if this should be publicly documented in the EGit (or JGit) Wiki?

 

I am happy to do the actual content additions myself; I wanted to check first that this update to documentation makes sense.

 

I was thinking that https://wiki.eclipse.org/EGit/Differences_to_Git  could list a general statement that there are differences for config and for attributes and link into the FAQ, and in the FAQ https://wiki.eclipse.org/EGit/FAQ in the config and the attributes section explicitly stating these are unsupported.

 

Regards,
