Hi Mario,

thanks for your patch. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work for me as
you described. If I use e.g. LANG=de_DE and I make test commits with the
svn command line client containing umlauts in the commit log, they are
not displayed correctly in kdesvn and vice versa (commit logs made in
kdesvn are not displayed correctly by svn log).
What your patch fixes is, that when kdesvn is run in a non-UTF-8 locale,
the commit messages are encoded into UTF-8, so if you switch back to an
UTF-8 locale, the messages are properly displayed (in kdesvn and svn
log). So it's probably still worthwile to apply the patch.

Cheers,
Michael
