Side question:
has_non_ascii can mean different things:
UTF-8, ISO-8859-1, ISO-8859-x...
In short: everything.
Should we be more critical here ?
May be this can be used from commit.c:
static int verify_utf8(struct strbuf *buf)
Other question:
Should the "non-ascii" characters in the test scripts be octal-escaped ?
Third question:
What happens on systems, which don't have gettext, (for whatever reasons)

4th question:
What happens on systems which don't have locale support at all ?
As one may suspect, I'm not a friend of being dependent on gettext and/or
locale, at least not for this kind of business.
Would it make more sense to have a command line option ?
