From d3b3419f8f287cd9d17be30e50937cbc7c4951ff Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kristoffer Haugsbakk Date: Mon, 27 Mar 2023 21:43:44 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] config: tell the user that we expect an ASCII character MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Commit 50b54fd72a (config: be strict on core.commentChar, 2014-05-17) notes that “multi-byte character encoding could also be misinterpreted”, and indeed a multi-byte codepoint (non-ASCII) is not accepted as a valid `core.commentChar`.
