Just found this conversation by search. I'm contributing to a project on GitHub, and had to redo a pull request because I hadn't noticed a code page conflict. Because I was now paying close attention to file encoding issues, I noticed that the SmartGit side-by-side diff viewer is apparently using UTF-8, and I can't find any way to change that. The project I'm contributing to is fairly old - mid-1990s - and the files use code page 437 (Windows default in US.) A German name in one of the files contains a lower-case o-umlaut, but SmartGit is showing it as a right double-quote (not the neutral double quote from the US keyboard.)
