Hmm, setting LC_ALL may not do what we want on the command line:

$ LC_ALL=de_DE svn
Type 'svn help' for usage.
$ LC_ALL=de_DE svn ls -v wc/A/f
      1 pm 2 Feb 09 12:32 f

To get German I need to set LANGUAGE:

$ LANGUAGE=de_DE svn
Geben Sie »svn help« für weitere Hilfe ein.
$ LANGUAGE=de_DE svn ls -v wc/A/f
      1 pm 2 09. Feb 12:32 f

Setting LC_ALL doesn't alter LANGUAGE:

$ (export LC_ALL=de_DE ; locale )
(export LC_ALL=de_DE ; locale)
LANG=en_GB.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=en_GB:en
LC_CTYPE="de_DE"
LC_NUMERIC="de_DE"
LC_TIME="de_DE"
LC_COLLATE="de_DE"
LC_MONETARY="de_DE"
LC_MESSAGES="de_DE"
LC_PAPER="de_DE"
LC_NAME="de_DE"
LC_ADDRESS="de_DE"
LC_TELEPHONE="de_DE"
LC_MEASUREMENT="de_DE"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="de_DE"
LC_ALL=de_DE
