Subversion to the <a href="http://darcs.net">Darcs</a> distributed version control
system, I encountered an error saying:</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre class="highlight plaintext"><code>'ascii' codec can't encode character
</code></pre></div><p>According to <a href="http://progetti.arstecnica.it/tailor/ticket/28">this Tailor bug
report</a>, the solution is to
specify the <code>--encoding=utf-8</code> option to Tailor. However, that did not work
for me. Instead, I had to change Python’s default system encoding, in the
<code>/etc/python2.4/site.py</code> file, from <code>"ascii"</code> to <code>"utf-8"</code> to solve the
problem.</p>
