 Description   

Some Git commit messages have control characters, or fancy quotation marks or mdash hyphens or similar, and this messes up the display of "git log" and other tools.

Add a check into commit-msg to reject commit messages that have non-ASCII characters. This does not apply to characters used in Signed-off-by: or similar fields that may contain people's names.
