If that is it, then I believe git should "do the right thing" when
generating patches. I've noticed that it progressively sets the encoding
based on the minimum required to encode the characters in the patch.

For example, if all characters can be encoded in ASCII, it uses ASCII,
otherwise I think it uses UTF-8.
