Hi,

i convert some files with recode from iso8859-1 to utf-8. When i try to
stat or commit the files, subversion detects no changes :-(

Howto tell subversion, the new encoding?

Regards,
Jens

Did your conversion program perhaps "helpfully" keep the timestamp of
the file the same? If so, that's why Subversion may have ignored it.
Try "touch <file>" to update the timestamp.

Alternatively, perhaps the file contains only ASCII characters and is
therefore identical whether represented in iso-8859-1 or utf-8 and
therefore there really are no changes to commit?
