thanks to a colleague I could get a workaround and commit my orig*.tar.xz tarballs to the tree. The problems must be araising in the genmanifest function due some charset voodoo. I'm running locally the de_DE.utf8 charset. So I think the created orig*.tar.xz tarballs are created with this charset. pristine-tar set LANG to 'C'. So also the function genmanifest is running with this setting. So if we hack and modify now this function to use de_DE.utf8 the commit is working, also the later extracting from the branch. The hackish looks now this way: $ git diff diff --git a/pristine-tar b/pristine-tar index fa73fcf..9e28855 100755 --- a/pristine-tar +++ b/pristine-tar @@ -501,16 +501,23 @@ sub genmanifest { my $tarball=shift; my $manifest=shift; + delete $ENV{LANG}; + $ENV{LANG} = 'de_DE.utf8'; + #print $ENV{LANG} .

I don't know, I'm really not a Perl guy. :-) Regards Carsten
