From: Jiang Xin <zhiyou.jx@alibaba-inc.com>
A workflow change for translators are being proposed.
Changes since v1:
* Patch 4/9: When running "make check-pot", do not update "po/git.pot".
* Patch 6/9: reword: the removal of "po/git.pot" is in preceding commit.
* Patch 7/9 and 8/9: Add new funciton "check_po_file_envvar" for reuse in both
  po-update and po-init targets.
