Comment 6 for bug 715547

I was pointed at this bug although I reported at https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr-diffstat/+bug/56680.

The exception was raised while adding files to the newly init-ed repo. Here is the trace:

bzr: ERROR: exceptions.UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xbe in position 6: ordinal not in range(128)
