As far as I can tell, if I''m using MySQL and I set the character set and collation on my databases when I create them (e.g. CREATE DATABASE project_development CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATION utf8_general_ci), when I run db:test:prepare it''ll lose that information because db:test:purge drops and recreates my database without bothering to check what my character set and collation actually are. This seems like something other people would have tripped over by now, but google searches aren''t turning anything up.
