I believe this happens because the "chcp" command changes the OEM
(console) code-page, but Subversion uses the ANSI (Windows) code page
for input and output conversion. In other words, the "chcp" does not
affect the command-line client in any way.

Not as such. :)

I think the only way to actually get this right is to change the way we
read from and write to the console on Windows. Instead of converting
strings to some native encoding and using the ordinary output functions,
we should convert to UTF-16 and use wide-char output functions instead.
