Can't commit due to encoding error.

[Deleted user]

I've tried to do the welcome task to learn how to commit files.

It turns out I'm unable to do that. After clicking Commit a message pops up:

Failed to detect original file encoding. Cannot save commit with unknown encoding

No matter what text I paste I always get the same message.

I'm not sure how it is supposed to help me. They talk about a bug that is not yet fixed.
