For now either way is fine with me. If the situation changes I'll
let you know.
I'm surprised git-send-email can't get it purely utf8 correctly.
I wonder if there is some issue with how it gets your name
string for the commit author etc.
I wonder if getting it into your global GIT config file in proper
UTF8 encoding would fix things.
Put something like this into ~/.gitconfig

The GIT maintainer is Finnish which makes this situation even
more perplexing to me, you might want to discuss it with him :-)
