Description Anton McConville

This file ...

org.eclipse.orion.server.tests/testData/importTest/あ.txt

causes problems for egit on a mac - I guess because of the international character. I can't resolve the issue from my installation and I see this:

An internal error occurred during: "Computing Git status for repository org.eclipse.orion.server".
Malformed input or input contains unmappable chacraters: /Users/antonm/git/org.eclipse.orion.server/tests/org.eclipse.orion.server.tests/testData/importTest/あ.txt

with every operation - even when I save a file

Is there any chance this file could be generated - or somehow optionally included or something?

This is still causing me problems. Please point me at the code, and I'll work to generate the file.

Since the file was added to test a file name defect rather than a file contents defect, I have wiped out the unicode characters from the file with commit:
http://git.eclipse.org/c/orion/org.eclipse.orion.server.git/commit/?id=212cc228331e24cc8db861680f99335ff04180b6

Give it another try.

Anton is still experiencing this bug, so reopening. 

The problem seems to be "あ" in the filename, not the file contents.

I will try the latest eGit at home on my Mac and see if I can duplicate the issue.

Comment 5 Mark Macdonald

I released a change that generates the test file on-the-fly instead of storing it in the repo. Hopefully this will prevent EGit from choking on the あ.txt file.

Anthony: if you want to try to reproduce the issue, do a hard reset on your server repo to commit 5be1f06, and the problematic file should appear again.

I appreciate all the work you've put in, but I have a workaround now, which is to avoid using egit, and to clone from the command line and import the projects from there.

It makes a huge difference not to see the error any more when working with eclipse.

No need to look further, problem solved.
