It just recently dawned on me that the message,
    Explicit paths specified without -i or -o; assuming --only paths..

is translated and "git grep" shows it's presence in the files present in the 'po' directory. What should be done to them? Should the translators be notified? 

BTW what does the word 'po' stand for in the first place? I digged a bit but couldn't find much from the log.
