I seem to have opened one of the .py files in mercurial(using Notepad++) , just out of curiosity to check how the mercurial hg extensions work, I am unable to use review board now : this is the error I am facing..I even replaced the reviewboard folder, but it seems the compiled python files are creating an issue. If there is some way to recompile these to reset the encoding, I'll be glad:
chcp 65001
set PYTHONIOENCODING=utf-8
I also tried setting back the encoding on my windows command line as suggested in some of the posts to fix the encoding issue :
#!python

We got the issue, the Tortoise Hg updated version(4.6) in not compatible with the REview board version, seems that this issue is already raised on Tortoise Hg forum.. Solution 1) Revert Hg to a prior version 4.5. something or 2) Update the review board manually using the Export to Patch option
