On Windows 10, in either WSL or git bash, with gitinspector installed in npm, the following command crashes:
gitinspector --version
Traceback (most recent call last):

UnicodeEncodeError: 'charmap' codec can't encode character u'\xa9' in position 32: character maps to <undefined>
@fuhrmanator Your shell is incorrectly set up, so python is unable to output the character \xa9. You need to set your terminal to an encoding that can handle the character. Right now it's unable to show it - hence the error you get with the mapping to undefined.
