git_handler: work around dulwich using unicode for ref names

Dulwich treats ref names internally as unicode strings (probably
because of Python 3?), which means that at some points it tries to do
os.path.join between the repo path and the unicode of the ref name,
which fails miserably if we construct the repo with a str and not a
unicode. Kludge around this problem.

Fixes issue 172.
