All good comments.
I have another one on the title.

If we auto-detect to customize which locale to use per user, that is already user-specific; letting the user to explicitly tell us which locale to use, that is "use user-specified UTF-8 locale".

This affects only SVN tests and the change is in lib-git-svn, so when we test other parts of the system for UTF-8, this change will not directly help, right? Perhaps we want to mention SVN somewhere on the title? Perhaps "for testing git-svn"?

Thanks.
