Subject: Encoding problem with web version of the user manual

The current online version of the user manual at 
http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/user-manual.html seems to 
have some encoding problems. The document itself is in ISO-8859-1, and it 
even states so in a meta-tag. However, the server says "Content-Type: 
text/html; charset=UTF-8" (which takes precedence, according to the spec). 
The end result is that the document looks like crap in most/all browsers 
(I've tested with Konqueror, Opera and Firefox). Not sure if any other 
documents are affected. The git manual page at 
http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git.html (and other git 
manual pages) works correctly, since it's actually in UTF-8 format, and the 
HTTP header is therefore correct.


Have fun!

...Johan
