Indeed.  Why not use buffer-file-coding-system?

Because its value doesn't change (from the initial `undecided-unix') 
even after the buffer is saved with new, non-ASCII characters.

Should this be considered a bug?

So far I've decided to use `select-safe-coding-system-function', but it 
just adds to the mess:

Didn't Emacs asked you to select an encoding when you saved?  Also,
what were the non-ASCII characters, and what is your
default-buffer-file-coding-system?

Please describe the issue from the beginning, I cannot find it in the
mailing list archives.  It's hard to judge the solution without
knowing the details of the problem.

Nope, it saves the file correctly automatically.

Some cyrillic characters, for example: фывапролд

utf-8-unix

Sorry, at first I thought I had the solution (with 
last-coding-system-used), so I didn't start the discussion.

Scenario:

1. Open an .rb file, written in ASCII (buffer-file-coding-system will be 
undecided-unix).
2. Switch to the Russian layout (usually that happens by accident, but 
sometimes even on purpose, according to my colleagues), type some text 
in Russian, press `C-x C-s'.
3. The file is saved fine, but buffer-file-coding-system is still 
undecided-unix. And `ruby-mode-set-encoding', from before-save-hook, has 
inserted `# coding: undecided' at the beginning of the file.

If I kill the buffer, then open the file again, 
buffer-file-coding-system is now utf-8-unix. If I make a modification 
and save the buffer now, the first line is changed to the correct `# -*- 
coding: utf-8 -*-'.

"Changed"?  You mean, there was an existing coding: cookie in the file
before you typed the cyrillic characters?  If so, what did that
original coding cookie say?

Also, do you see the same behavior with Emacs 24.3?

I think it is OK to silently save the buffer with UTF-8, if that's
your default, but the value of buffer-file-coding-system should in
that case change to UTF-8.

No, that's a continuation of the scenario. That's what happens if I kill 
the modified buffer with the newly-added `# coding: undecided`, and then 
reopen it.

The presence of the `# coding' line is not particularly important. The 
fact that the file has some cyrillic characters in it, however, makes 
the buffer open with buffer-file-coding-system `utf-8-unix'.

> Also, do you see the same behavior with Emacs 24.3?

Yes and no. The `ruby-mode-set-encoding' bug is there, because it uses 
`before-save-hook', but `buffer-file-coding-system' does change after 
the buffer is saved, in accordance with your preference below.

So I don't need to kill and reopen the buffer. Just making another 
change and saving sets `coding:` comment to the right value (as long as 
the second change leaves at least some non-ASCII characters in the buffer).

Should I file a bug, or..?

You are wrong, the presence of the cookie changes a lot how encoding
and decoding works.  So it is very important.

> Should I file a bug, or..?

Yes, but please include a test case starting with "emacs -Q" and a
file that initially has only ASCII characters, and no 'coding'
cookies.  Also, please keep the ruby mode out of the scenario (unless
then the problem goes away).

Thanks.

I mean, in this case. `# coding: undecided' doesn't change anything if 
the file contains actual non-ASCII characters.
