+Changing default encoding
+-------------------------
+
+By default RhodeCode uses utf8 encoding, starting from 1.3 series this
+can be changed, simply edit default_encoding in .ini file to desired one.
+This affects many parts in rhodecode including commiters names, filenames,
+encoding of commit messages. In addition RhodeCode can detect if `chardet`
+library is installed. If `chardet` is detected RhodeCode will fallback to it
+when there are encode/decode errors.
