At the moment non-ascii encodings of filenames are not portably converted
between different filesystems by git. This will most likely change in the
future but to allow repositories to be portable among different file/operating
systems this check is enabled by default.

I tried it and indeed it seems to work now. This hook originated from a
windows installation were having non-ascii characters resulted in a
strange warning from git gui each time you commit. So here is the
corrected patch.
