git not displaying unicode file names

Solution 1:

Check first if git config core.quotePath false helps.

git config --global core.quotePath false

If not, as stated in "Git and the Umlaut problem on Mac OS X", try:

git config --global core.precomposeunicode true

From git config man page:

core.precomposeUnicode

This option is only used by Mac OS implementation of Git.
When core.precomposeUnicode=true, Git reverts the unicode decomposition of filenames done by Mac OS.
