I'm never sure if it corresponds 100%.

`emacs-internal` works both in Emacs-22 and Emacs-25 (and presumably in
Emacs-36 where we'll be using the new quantum-character encoding).
IOW it says precisely what we want: the internal encoding used in the
current version of Emacs. Whereas utf-8-emacs-unix reads to me as "some
Emacs-specific encoding related to utf-8", so the intention is
less clear.
But either way works, it's a matter of taste,
