That's very nice, and it passes the msgfmt --check test as well, so all looks good.

As an aside doesn't the bug / workaround described in https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/gettext.c#L35 impact chinese especially badly? I'd expect any place where we use strerror() to show up as total gibberish.

Nothing to be done about that though than providing non-broken printf functions though, just curious.

It also looks like we could do away with making this available for translation, and it should actually be something like "if you see this report a bug in Git" instead.
