From Gwern's commentary <http://bugs.darcs.net/msg17127>: > filenames with Unicode seem to be mishandled somehow: > https://github.com/gwern/gwern.net/commit/f627252d99c54567a9b6466af4ea52d1cdc59ac8

This seems to be a simple bug only if someone who has experience in treating correctly utf-encoded strings looks at it. Ganesh? Ben? See http://hub.darcs.net/darcs/darcs-screened/browse/src/Darcs/UI/Commands/Convert.hs#536 : These Filenames come from `listTouchedFiles`, then are passed to `dumpFiles`, which outputs them to the fast-export stream, that's all.

I have a patch for this and a few other convert related issues. Stay tuned.

Thanks for noticing (and cleaning up after me ;-)
