Solution

  • Your README.md is encoded as little-endian UTF-16, with mixed line endings:

    $ file README.md 
README.md: Little-endian UTF-16 Unicode text, with very long lines, with CRLF, CR line terminators

    UTF-16 is fairly uncommon these days; UTF-8 has largely replaced it. Consider re-encoding your file as UTF-8, normalizing your line endings, and re-publishing.
