Hmph.  So what happens when the path is _not_ encoded in UTF-8?

Is the repo.hash (and local.hash that gets a copy of it) something
that needs to stay the same across multiple invocations of this
remote helper, and between the currently shipped Git and the version
of Git after applying this patch?  If that is not the case, and if
this is used only to get a randomly-looking 40-byte hexadecimal
string, then a lossy attempt to .encode('utf-8') and falling back to
replace or ignore bytes in the original that couldn't be interpreted
as part of a UTF-8 string would be OK, but doesn't .encode('utf-8')
throw an exception if not told to 'ignore' or something?
