Description

I have rerere enabled in my .gitconfig:

[rerere]
  enabled = true

After doing a git cherry-pick, conflicts are found (which is expected in my case), after which git rerere tries to auto resolve the conflicts (also a good thing because i've resolved these conflicts before). However, the resulting files are not encoded properly on zos. It appears that the zos-working-tree-encoding attribute has not been respected.
