So this one pargaraph of commit message is just a paragraph from my E-Mail upthread, but out of context it's just confusing.

This still results in the same issue. Sorry, by "unfuzzying" I thought you meant change these translations so they'd no longer be commented out and would actually have a translation.

The problem is that there's two msgid lines, so e.g. this on top of yours "fixes" it:

     #
    -#~| msgid "git archive [<options>] <tree-ish> [<path>...]"
     #~ msgid "git diff --no-index [<options>] <path> <path>"
     #~ msgstr "git archive [<options>] <arbre ou apparenté> [<chemin>...]"
But isn't a better fix on top of master just:
    sed -i '22477,$ d' po/fr.po

That results in 1500 lines removed from the end. I.e. what's the point of keeping those old now-unused translations around?
