Non ASCII characters may be handled by publishing chains, but right
now, nothing indicates the encoding of files. Moreover, non ASCII
source strings upset the localization toolchain.

Although Asciidoc allows to not indent following lines in a list item,
it is clearer and safer to follow the recommended rule.

Yeah, that is entirely my fault.  What is worse is that the
description is full of overly long sentences.  The result of
applying this patch may be more gramatically correct than the
original, and it might be easier to read than the original, but I
think it is still too hard to understand than it should be.

Perhaps we should consider a total rewrite of the paragraph (no pun
intended).

Thanks.

There's another one in git-format-patch.txt, "Uwe Kleine-König diet", but this one does not seem to cause issues and it is difficult to replace it with ASCII only.

Should I try to find an alternative text?

No, let's keep names of people as-is, if they are not causing
issues.

What surprised me was the apparent lack of these "smarter"

Thanks.
