I'm totally on board with this:

Do not save your *.nuspec files with a Byte Order Mark (BOM). A BOM is neither required nor recommended for UTF-8, because it can lead to several issues.

https://chocolatey.org/docs/create-packages#character-encoding

But choco new is not. It's currently creating UTF-8-BOM nuspecs.

@Benny1007 are you still interested in this?

At a quick glance on your PR, the "changed" but untouched files mostly seem to be registering as changed due to something in your system stripping out the BOM from those files; I think that ought to be largely OK. 🙂

I found a bunch of my nuspec files with BOM. I later made https://chocolatey.org/packages/choco-nuspec-checker to check and fix them automatically... and then got a little ADHD with it. :)

(chocolateyGH-1364) Template create .nuspec encoded without BOM
a18eaa5 
Changes the encoding of `.nuspec` files created from templates to UTF8 with BOM to UTF8 without BOM according to best practices in the creating packages documentation. Applies to both the default template and to custom templates.

Adjusted template services tests to include UTF8 no BOM files, otherwise nuspec files would not be detected anymore.
