If you want to write a version control system, banning a big chunk of perfectly legal filenames on both linux and windows seems like a bad choice. Users do have such filenames, and saying you can't store their files "because they aren't UTF-8" will annoy them. I've seen such filenames occur from people using the name as a binary encoding in some way. As long as you miss (from wikipedia) NUL, \, /, :, *, ", <, >, | you will end up with a filename which all OSes support, and some systems do that. |
