Note that if everybody agrees that the division of labor between the developer, the i18n coordinator and translators I suggested in the earlier message is the way to go, po/git-gui.pot should be managed by the i18n coordinator and revision tracked in-tree. Simple "make" should not try to update it for ordinary people, but we can have a "i18n coordinator only" maintenance target to update it.

That way, translators do not have to touch anything other than their own po/xx.po files.
