If it was only about a diff of UTF-16 files, I may suggest a patch.
I simply copy-paste it here for review, if someone thinks that it may
be useful, I can send it as a real patch/RFC.

commit 9f7d43f29eaf6017b7b16261ce91d8ef182cf415
Author: Torsten Bögershausen <tboegi@xxxxxx>
Date:   Fri Feb 2 15:35:23 2018 +0100

    Auto diff of UTF-16 files in UTF-8
    
    When an UTF-16 file is commited and later changed, `git diff` shows
    "Binary files XX and YY differ".
    
    When the user wants a diff in UTF-8, a textconv needs to be specified
    in .gitattributes and the textconv must be configured.
    
    A more user-friendly diff can be produced for UTF-16 if
    - the user did not use `git diff --binary`
    - the blob is identified as binary
    - the blob has an UTF-16 BOM
    - the blob can be converted into UTF-8
    
    Enhance the diff machinery to auto-detect UTF-16 blobs and show them
    as UTF-8, unless the user specifies `git diff --binary` which creates
    a binary diff.
