Convert author's name and e-mail address from the UTF-8 (or any other) encoding in load_last_commit function the same way commit message is converted. Amending commits in git-gui without such conversion breaks UTF-8 strings. For example, "\305\201ukasz" (as written by git cat-file) becomes "\303\205\302\201ukasz" in an amended commit.
