Prevent GIT from changing automatically character encoding
I face a problem as below. Please give me a solution. Thanks in advance!
I use Linux OS (ubuntu)
Initially, I checkout new branch with the file test.properties
file encoding:
test.properties: text/plain; charset=unknown-8bit
Intellij Seting file encoding:
on Browser, the text show like:
# 基本情報
I only add '#' character for one line, then I commit file, push my_branch to my repository
I run git diff command:
git diff
-# <8A><EE><96>{<8F><EE><95><F1>
+## u57FAu672Cu60C5u5831
.... other lines are also changed into UTF-8 encoding.
How can I prevent the problem? Simply, It just marks as below:
My expectation looks like this:
-# <8A><EE><96>{<8F><EE><95><F1>
+## <8A><EE><96>{<8F><EE><95><F1>

Could it be merely a matter of representation in the diff interface? Is the file coding really changed?

@matt the file is also changed, when I open the file via browser. on browser, it shows ## u57FAu672Cu60C5u5831 instead of ## 基本情報 But, on IDE: it shows: ## 基本情報

First, read joelonsoftware.com/2003/10/08/… - then realize that Git itself doesn't even look at encoding, it just compares byte-strings. It leaves "encoding" up to other software. You need to convince the other software to deal with encoding in a way that behaves well for you; and Git is only going to deal with bytes.

Nov 15 '18 at 6:42
(Git does make one concession to encoding: it will, if you tell it to, put anencodingheader into a commit, to help other software decide how to treat the bytes in the commit log text.) Also, the reason these are comments is: it looks like IntelliJ does try to understand encodings, so maybe that's where to fiddle with this. But I know nothing about IntelliJ; this question is posted to git and gitlab, not intellij-idea, at least at the moment.

I've found out the cause. It comes from changing setting from IDE.
I unchecked Transparent native-to-ascii conversion as below: 
Ok, now the merge request only showed what was changed.
