New submission from ZyX <kp-pav at yandex.ru>:
Consider the difference between
LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8 hg help update | iconv -f UTF-8 | grep -e '-C --clean'
and
LANG=ru_RU.CP1251 hg help update | iconv -f CP1251 | grep -e '-C --
clean'
(you may use any other 1-byte encoding that is present on your system). In
first case you will see
-C --clean затереть незакоммиченные
, in the second:
-C --clean затереть незакоммиченные изменения (без бэкапа)
. Here in the first case column is too narrow and thus help is less
readable. It looks like formatter does not know that one character may be
represented by more then one byte in unicode locales.
