File ignoring works not well with unicode filenames

First, when I add Cyrillic files to ignore using TortoiseGit menu, it append with ANSI encoding (windows-1251), but it's not work (always show this files as unversioned) until I convert .gitignore to UTF-8. But next time it can't detect it's encoding and append new files with ANSI anyway. So file has a different encoded strings. msysGit can understand misc encodings, so it will better, if TGit will have autodetection and option for new files.

Next one is a really minor, but no good. When I select some files with same extension (using extension filter), it makes a number of same strings.
