I believe can we can simply replace this with the following and avoid having to spacial case
null
.This makes the
GetEncoding
responsible for returningEncoding.UTF8
if the target file has a preamble ornew UTF8Encoding(false)
if the target file doesn't exist or have a preamble. UTF8 without preamble is Git's default text encoding.Here is what I see if we return
new UTF8Encoding(false)
:It's possible we could always use
new UTF8Encoding(false)
and avoid this issue completely. The question is what a diff looks like between UTF8 files with and without preamble. I didn't knownew UTF8Encoding(false)
was a thing until today.There was a problem hiding this comment.

Re: wondering if we could always use
new UTF8Encoding(false)
. Alas, this doesn't work. I tried the following:When I diff them together, I see:

I think returning
return new UTF8Encoding(false)
when there is no preamble or file is probably the cleanest solution.
