IIRC, the timetable was:
	* Christian Stimming submits a new de.po
	* Shawn Pearce updates git-gui.pot and asks for help
	* other languages are submitted

So de.po has a different date, but doesn't miss anything since no major change has occurred in git-gui.git in the meantime.

An empty string means "there's no translation, use the default" -- in this case: "buckets". I left it this way because I couldn't come up with a decent translation, and I wanted to keep a reminder.

In this case, git-gui is counting objects during a clone; would it be OK to consider "buckets" as synonim of "objects" or "items" or something else? Then I would translate accordingly.
