Do you agree that you need to store or at least calculate a

If so, do you think those rules should be an option? Or a preference?
Should I specify in my config file that I want my filenames to be
normalized?
Ignoring encoding, and case-sensitive issues in the git index creates
problems for those people who want/need to use non-ascii chars in
their filenames, and have some change of being able to collaborate
with other users on different operating systems.
