Subject: [PATCH] git-gui: preserve commit messages in utf-8
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The commit message buffer is automatically preserved to a local file
but this uses the system encoding which may fail to properly encode
unicode text. Forcing this file to use utf-8 preserves the message
correctly.
