[svk-devel] Re: How to fix "Can't decode commit message as ascii" ?

[Marijn P. Vriens]

I don't know how relevant this is but, I have seen this with a Linux straight 
SVN client working with commits made by a windows client with accents. 

My guess is that the log message is not in a (for the client) decent encoding 
and it bombs out on trying to parse it. 

Regrads,
