Judged by a native speaker (that is me), there are some funny translations we may want to fix up, but it should serve as a good basis for anybody to whip it into shape good enough and forward it to Paul to be merged.

Thanks.

You are using です・ます style throughout the translation, so you would want to say:

    未マージファイルのリストを取得できません

or something like that.

I have never seen ref and reference translated as 照会 in the context of git.

There are some people working on translating the documentation; a good starting point would be:

    http://www8.atwiki.jp/git_jp/

and the glossary's translation is here.

    http://github.com/yasuaki/git-manual-jp/blob?path[]=Documentation&path[]=glossary.txt&raw=true

They translate "ref" as 参照 which may not be best but looks better than 照会. I wrote a magazine article in Japanese and I ended up calling them just リファレンス --- write pronunciation in kana which is a universal cop-out X-<.

I'd drop な if I were translating this

I'd say 区別しない instead of 区別せず as the rest is in です・ます style.

I used 著者 for Author and 記録者 for Committer. The translated glossary I mentioned earlier seems to agree with me on Author (it cops out on committer by saying "コミットした人").

Perhaps

    「これと選択したコミットの差分を見る」
    「選択したコミットとこれの差分を見る」

If you can affored to go a bit longer, I'd say このコミット instead of これ here, though.

This is a hard one ;-)

You probably do not want の here.

I am not sure about the context of this message but shouldn't it be 後退?

These are hard ones. I'd leave Soft/Mixed/Hard labels in English/alphabets if I were doing this, though.
