This answer on StackOverflow is only for Debian Linux and related
(Ubuntu, Mint, etc.). It won't work on Windows.

For some reason your regional setting on Windows are not correct.
Subversion uses 'setlocale(LC_ALL, "")' and if that fails,
'setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "")'. This should always work on Windows; I don't
know why it doesn't.

See:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/c-runtime-library/reference/setlocale-wsetlocale

Are you sure you're using a native Windows binary of Subversion, not
something built for Cygwin or WSL?
