I just looked at the diff this commit introduces:

    e6bd23911efd0a2bd756c77d9e7ba6576eb739a1
        Documentation: asciidoc sources are utf-8

with gitk (BTW, I pulled from paulus today, so "master" branch
has the latest gitk) while my locale set to LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8.

Surprisingly, the diff to Documentation/git-pack-redundant.txt,
which changes Lukas' name originally incorrectly encoded in
iso-8859-1 to utf-8, was shown and both pre-image and post-image
lines are readable.

I do not know how tcl/tk does it, but it is doing the right
thing.
Tcl/Tk assumes that anything that isn't valid UTF-8 is Latin-1.

My locale is set to LC_CTYPE=it_IT (local codec is ISO 8859-15).

Gitk shows correctly pre-image lines, but not post-image. BTW it's 
the same output I have with

      git-diff-tree -p e6bd23911efd0a2bd756c77d9e7ba6576eb739a1

run from KDE Konsole.

So I think the local encoding (LC_CTYPE) has a role in the story.
