Subject: 29.1; Tramp resets file buffer encoding to UTF-8
Date: Wed, 2 Aug 2023 16:11:49 +0300
I edit my files in cp1251 encoding.

This works fine on local host but when I save files on remote host using 
tramp it resets encoding to utf-8 constantly.

Even if I do |(set-buffer-file-coding-system)| to cp1251, it sets the 
encoding for awhile, but after saving the file it immediately resets to 
utf-8-unix. The saved file appears in cp1251 as desired, but the buffer 
encoding becomes utf-8-unix and subsequent saving appears in utf-8-unix

For example, I do |(set-buffer-file-coding-system 'cp1251)|

save file

the file on disk is in cp1251 encoding, but the encoding flag in the 
left bottom becomes U for utf-8

save file again

it is in utf-8 encoding

It happens regardless of if the file contains only ASCII symbols or 
non-ASCII symbols.

Local files are saved normally.


The issue appeared in emacs 29.1, everything was ok in 28.1

workaround

|(defun set-remote-encoding () "set buffer encoding to cp1251" 
(set-buffer-file-coding-system 'cp1251)) (add-hook 'before-save-hook 
'set-remote-encoding) |
