The ab/i18n-gettextize series is now ready. And since I've tested it with the new GETTEXT_POISON support I'm confident that it works. Please pull it from:

Changes to the series since last time are this fixup patch:

This changed what was stored in commit messages, so it was *really* breaking the plumbing. This was turned up with the new GETTEXT_POISON debug support.

Then there are these two commits which are new in the series:

    7cd45c32 * gettextize: git-fetch split up "(non-fast-forward)" message
    8b47940b * gettextize: git-fetch update_local_ref messages

Reproduced here for review:

And finally (and attached) to make use of this all the ab/i18n-add-translations series adds German and British English Translations:

    git://github.com/avar/git.git ab/i18n-add-translations

Web view:

    http://github.com/avar/git/compare/ab/i18n-gettextize...ab/i18n-add-translations

1771 lines for the British English one to translate 3 strings is a bit of an overkill. But it seems that projects that use gettext usually include the untranslated strings too. E.g. glibc.git does that for its en_GB.po file.

Maybe we can prune out entries with msgstr "". That seems to work on GNU, it probably works on all other gettext implementations.

Note that these patches might not appear at all on the list, since they might bump into the maximum message length on the list.
