Google SDK gcloud crashed (UnicodeDecodeError): 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xf8 in position 29: invalid start byte

When trying to run gcloud app deploy, I'm getting the error: 

gcloud crashed (UnicodeDecodeError): 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xf8 in position 29: invalid start byte

I have no clue whats happening with it. Works fine in my local server.

The full error is:

The code and deployment was working just yesterday. I updated the SDK, so I thought maybe that was it... trying reinstalling with no luck.

Deleted the code (The javascript parts) I added from yesterday, and still isn't working.

Have no idea how to even test this. Any advice would be awesome.

I'm using Django (not sure if that was obvious :-P )

Figured it out.

Was a ø in my file code. Not UTF-8 supported. :-)
