TortoiseMerge fails to detect utf-16 without BOM

Posted on Jul 20, 2013 by Helpful Hippo

Files that are encoded in utf-16 but do not have a BOM are treated as ASCII or UTF8 in TortoiseMerge. The encoding detection logic only check the BOM.

We have to improve that detection logic so that utf-16 files are detected correctly even if they don't have a BOM.
