svn: Can't convert string from 'UTF-8' to native encoding:

"svn: Can't convert string from 'UTF-8' to native encoding:"

This usually happens with special characters in the file name, which the client cannot understand.

Just set proper locale in the client to fix this issues,

$ export LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8
// make sure the locale is properly set.
$ locale
LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8
