O.K., will do.

Anyway this change makes rpmbuild process complete.

The git-i18n-Icelandic proposal for /usr/share/locale/is/LC_MESSAGES/git.mo follow the KDE pattern (e.g. kde-i18n-Polish). This might be a place for translated manpages and other documentation, if there is any.

On the other hand all translations for gitk are in gitk package (as /usr/share/gitk/lib/msgs/*.msg, not /usr/share/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/git.mo) Same for git-gui.
