git-gui: updated translator README for current procedures.

git-gui: Improve directions regarding POT update in po/README

2008-03-16T06:06:12Z

Keeping POT up to date relative to the software is absolutely necessary. What is unwarranted is updating language files at the same time by running msgmerge without checking if there is any outstanding translation work first. If we assume that the translators do not have access to msgmerge, that is a good service to them (the less they have to do, the better), but otherwise, it is better to be leave po/${language}.po files alone.

git-gui: Document the new i18n context support

2007-09-12T21:05:16Z

Translators working on po files will likely need to know what the @@noun and @@verb parts are in the original message text, and why these are different messages in the po files. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce

git-gui: Update po/README as symlink process is not necessary

2007-09-03T04:17:04Z

We don't actually need to create the lib/msgs symlink back to our po directory in the source tree. git-gui.sh is smart enough to figure out this is where the msg files are and will load them from the po directory if invoked as git-gui.sh. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce
