TODO
----
* Git thinks that filenames are bytestreams, not character sequences.
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/122860
* Git can not work across different encodings, and admits as much.
Then again Subversion can't either.
* Our only hope is to ask Git for bytestreams and apply some heuristics
as to the encoding and composition used.
* ATM, setuptools-git returns files by their OS path, not the POSIX
path that is returned by Git. It also resolves symbolic links within
the same repository.
* We might get away with passing along the bytestreams in Python 2,
but in Python 3 we must return Unicode.
* For passing through non-UTF-8 filenames under Python 3, use the
'surrogateescape' error handler.
