The locale variables you showed are on your client? I don't think that
wouldn't be relevant; it's the post-commit hook that's failing, so
it's the post-commit hook that needs the locale variables set properly
within it. (Remember that hook scripts run with an empty environment.)
What is the contents of your post-commit hook script?
