Cloning http://wxdsgn.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/wxdsgn/ fails with STDERR: svnsync: Cannot accept 'svn:log' property because it is not encoded in UTF-8

After fixed, we need to follow up with the wxdsgn project admins to coordinate a new repo import.

    Closed #118. No changes in Allura.

    We found that this issue is not about Allura. Rejecting non-utf-8 properties is a common problem. We tried to make svnsync with our local repository without Allura. The svnsync command failed after 559 revs.

    We also found that this is a well-known problem. Please check this article to find out how to clone that repository.

    I ran svn proplist -v --revprop -r 600 http://wxdsgn.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/wxdsgn/ | iconv --to-code UTF8//IGNORE -o /tmp/iconv.out

    Then edited /tmp/iconv.out and fixed fancy quote on "doesn't"

    Then ran svn propset svn:log --revprop -r 600 -F /tmp/iconv.out https://wxdsgn.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/wxdsgn/
