    Until now, we've been assuming that all source files are either UTF-8
    or ISO-8859-15.  This breaks things for people who use other, incompatible
    encodings like Shift-JIS.
    
    This change adds an optional encoding field to the repository model so
    people can set it there.  This is probably the best we can do, since I
    don't know of any VCS that actually keeps track of the encoding of files
    stored inside it.
