git diff localizable.strings
(from :http://www.entropy.ch/blog/Developer/2010/04/15/Git-diff-for-Localizable-strings-Files.html)
First, add this to the project’s .git/info/attributes file:
+
*.strings diff=localizablestrings
(Unfortunately you do have to add it to every project, there doesn’t seem to be a global attributes configuration file)
Second, add this to your ~/.gitconfig file:
+
[diff "localizablestrings"]
textconv = "iconv -f utf-16 -t utf-8"

Works like a charm with Tower, thx.

Here's my .gitattributes located in project's root:

*.strings diff=localizablestrings
[diff "localizablestrings"]
	textconv = "iconv -f utf-16 -t utf-8"
