Title: Hacky fix for encoding issues

gollum works fine, until you get someone using it with UTF8 chars in their email or committer ID, then it explodes...

The problem is that Grit does not set an encoding on the strings that it creates from the repo, and when you try and concatenate that with strings with known encodings in mustache you get issues.

This should really be fixed in Grit, not gollum, but as Grit appears to be largely unsupported these days, seems like this is the best place for it.
