What would you think of it?
Strongly negative.  I don't want force people to set GIT_LANG HG_LANG
CVS_LANG and 47 different FROTZ_LANG environment variables.

I would rather just set LANG=C LC_ALL=C in the terminal I use git in and
leave everything else in whatever locale the rest of the system is in.
Ok. Accepted. Was just a question. I see your point.
Alternatively, you might like something like the following in your
.bashrc:

function git
{
    LANG=C command git "$@"
}
Hmm. Looks interesting. I'll try it out. I'm not so shell'ish (more
perl'ish) but I expect that to "rename"/"alias" git to the given command. If
it works, it's great. Thank you.
Just make sure you include the "command" part or the function will
call itself indefinitely...
