Fix garbled text with Unicode display names obtained from HTTP headers

This is evil -- the semantic of non-ASCII data in header fields got
changed several times, and RFC 7230 from June 2014 says this [1]:

   Historically, HTTP has allowed field content with text in the
   ISO-8859-1 charset [ISO-8859-1], supporting other charsets only
   through use of [RFC2047] encoding.  In practice, most HTTP header
   field values use only a subset of the US-ASCII charset [USASCII].
   Newly defined header fields SHOULD limit their field values to
   US-ASCII octets.  A recipient SHOULD treat other octets in field
   content (obs-text) as opaque data.

...which means that there's no universal standard for using Unicode
characters in HTTP headers. In presence of this voidness, we can get
creative and support arguably broken schemes.

Our SSO solution (Shibboleth/SAML with eduid.cz) appears to work with
UTF-8. UTF-8 is certainly no worse than ISO-8859-1, and I'm a supporter
of a view which says that decoding ASCII as UTF-8 is reasonable approach
in these not-so-well-defined cases. This at least prevents the mojibake
of showing an ISO-8859-1 rendering of some UTF-8 octets.

Gerrit Code Review

Gerrit is a code review and project management tool for Git based projects.

Objective

Gerrit makes reviews easier by showing changes in a side-by-side display, and allowing inline comments to be added by any reviewer.

Gerrit simplifies Git based project maintainership by permitting any authorized user to submit changes to the master Git repository, rather than requiring all approved changes to be merged in by hand by the project maintainer.

Documentation

For information about how to install and use Gerrit, refer to the documentation.

Source

Our canonical Git repository is located on googlesource.com. There is a mirror of the repository on Github.

Reporting bugs

Please report bugs on the issue tracker.

Contribute

Gerrit is the work of hundreds of contributors. We appreciate your help!

Please read the contribution guidelines.

Note that we do not accept Pull Requests via the Github mirror.

Getting in contact

The IRC channel on freenode is #gerrit. An archive is available at: echelog.com.

The Developer Mailing list is repo-discuss on Google Groups.

License

Gerrit is provided under the Apache License 2.0.

Build

Install Buck and run the following:

    git clone --recursive https://gerrit.googlesource.com/gerrit
    cd gerrit && buck build release

Install binary packages (Deb/Rpm)

The instruction how to configure GerritForge/BinTray repositories is here

On Debian/Ubuntu run:

    apt-get update & apt-get install gerrit=<version>-<release>

NOTE: release is a counter that starts with 1 and indicates the number of packages that have been released with the same version of the software.

On CentOS/RedHat run:

    yum clean all && yum install gerrit-<version>[-<release>]

NOTE: release is optional. Last released package of the version is installed if the release number is omitted.
