v0.4.1

0.4.1 (2026-09-05)

A person who signs Weiß on one machine and WEISS on another was two people, and half their commits fell outside every figure. JavaScript's toLowerCase is Unicode's simple case fold and leaves ß alone; the full fold maps it to ss (CaseFolding.txt, status F), which the identity fold now does. The same fold normalises to NFKC, so a name typed in fullwidth Latin letters, which is what a Japanese or Korean keyboard produces without switching modes, matches the ASCII spelling. This changes which commits are counted, not how a name is printed: the report still prints the name git holds.

An Arabic or Hebrew name no longer turns the plain-language paragraph right to left. Names and repository names are wrapped in the U+2068 and U+2069 isolates UAX #9 defines, in the Markdown report only. The JSON keeps the exact string git holds, so the hash is unchanged and a report written before this release still verifies.

The README, in both languages, adds a section on names that are not ASCII and states three choices that are deliberate rather than overlooked: en-US number formatting for people, which cannot reach the hash because that is taken over canonical JSON; ISO weeks for cadence, though CLDR gives Monday to only seven of the twenty most populous countries; and mapping identities by address, because git matches a .mailmap name ignoring case for ASCII letters only.
