25--encoding[=<encoding>]::
26 The commit objects record the encoding used for the log message
27 in their encoding header; this option can be used to tell the
28 command to re-code the commit log message in the encoding
29 preferred by the user. For non plumbing commands this
30 defaults to UTF-8.
