Charset on Linux server with Git : <p>We have some trouble with special signs in our (javascript) application like €.</p>

<p>The files looks correct when we open they on our development pc's but when pulled on our production server the sign is showing up like <code>â‚¬</code>. In the browser but also in the file itselfs.</p>

<p>I guess it is something with the charset or locale setting on the server, but when executing <code>locale</code> I see that it's set to UTF-8 already.</p>

<pre><code>LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="en_US.utf-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.utf-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.utf-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.utf-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.utf-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.utf-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.utf-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.utf-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.utf-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.utf-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.utf-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.utf-8"
LC_ALL=en_US.utf-8
</code></pre>

<p>What can be the issue here? </p>
