Populating the cache only needs to parse identifiers which should be
exclusively ASCII, so as long as we get to read those, it does not
matter what's the encoding of Git commit logs. I think it would be
good to use an ASCII stream reader that ignores decoding errors to
make the code more robust to whatever oddball content may be present
in commit logs.
