This problem is not specific to Git. Earlier in the thread, Ævar asked[1] if the problem also occurs with other command-line programs, and indeed it does. For instance, I tried with 'wget' installed via brew, and it exhibits the same odd behavior. Ævar suggested that there might be some magic special-casing English, which makes me wonder if brew builds such magic into gettext(?) or if the magic is part of MacOS itself.
