The problem: I edit a .vcproj file, save it as UTF-8 (and specify that in the xml header), and when I open it in VS, the next time it saves it the encoding reverts back to CP-1255/1252/1251 (depending on the Localized Settings on the machine).
This has become a problem in our R&D, since whenever someone commits a .vcproj file the encoding changes according to their machine’s configuration. How can I configure VS to just use UTF-8 and stop this back and forth ANSI encoding dance?
cheap answer: make all dev pc’s have same Localized Settings.
