Good suggestions.

Being very traditional with my filenames I have not run into that
problem before and so can only suggest a few things.
As suggested check the locale setting in the hook script.
locale
Set the locale in that hook script.
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
Or
LANG=en_US
Or something like that. On my system en_US maps to ISO-8859-1 and
en_US.UTF-8 maps to UTF-8.
Note that the order of preference of environment variables is the
following:
LANG
LC_CTYPE
LC_ALL
Often you read people say to set LC_ALL. I do that when I don't want
to worry that a higher priority setting might override since LC_ALL is
the highest priority. But generally you really want to set the lowest
possible one. And LC_COLLATE and LC_CTYPE must be compatible types.
So if only LANG is set to the wrong value, or not set at all then the
variable to set is LANG=en_US or some such.
Having a character encoding issue like this with the hook scripts
seems like a generic problem. I am surprised that this is not handled
already. So I am left wondering. Perhaps something is actually
breaking it as opposed to not being handled right. Don't know.
BTW... Generally UTF-8 is the way of the future. I will go out on a
limb and say that the locale en_US is mostly obsolete.
