There were two issues in the implementation of install_git_hooks that
prevented it from working on Python 3:
- an old-style (0777) octal literal was used instead of a new-style one
(0o777): old-style literals are not supported on Python 3; and
- bytes and unicode were being mixed in os.path.join, which is not an
issue in Python 2 but is on Python 3.

Since prepare-dev.py is intended to install dependencies, we can't
assume the presence of six, so we determine the correct string type
manually.

Ran prepare-dev.py under Python 2 and Python 3 and it created git
hooks successfully.

This whole thing could probably just be: if isinstance(gitdir, bytes): gitdir = gitdir.decode('utf-8')

subprocess.check_output() is going to return bytes on both Python 2.x and 3.x. So we can actually just include this in …

    subprocess.check_output() is going to return bytes on both Python 2.x and 3.x. So we can actually just include this in the above call, like:

    gitdir = (
        subprocess.check_output(...)
        .decode('utf-8')
        .strip()
    )
