I thought, that I did 'git config --global core.quotepath false', but it didn't change anything, then, I started trying to figure out how to do it in perl.

Now, since you've wrote about it, I went to 'git config --global -l' to get a copy of that parameter for a proof and it wasn't there.
How could it be, I remember, that I did it. I've looked at the command history and found 'git config --global --get core.quotepath false'. :), so I've forgot to remove --get parameter from the previous git command, when typing this one.

At first, I thought, I've wasted so much time, because of this little mistake, but then, I've figured, no, this escaped string has bugged me before and, finally, I've found a solution to it, so, I was diverted from the original problem, but didn't waste any time.

P.S.: "Also, that reminds me of... :)"

...Yes, this unicode thing still haunts me. I still can't tackle it completely. There is so much documentation on it. I read it occasionally, but can't read it all in one, or even 10 seats :). Also, much of the stuff gets forgotten over time, but little by little, I refine my unicode knowledge. That post helped me to understand, that not everything can be unicode. Files have to be bytes internally, only convert them to unicode, when outputting to the screen.

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
