Git's tests are run under LANG=C LC_ALL=C. So the tests do not need be
changed to account for translations as they're added.


PO helper
---------

To make the maintenance of XX.po easier, the l10n coordinator and l10n
team leaders can use a helper program named "git-po-helper". It is a
wrapper to gettext suite, specifically written for the purpose of Git
l10n workflow.

To build and install the helper program from source, see
[git-po-helper/README][].

Usage for git-po-helper:

- To start a new language translation:

git-po-helper init XX.po

- To update your XX.po file:

git-po-helper update XX.po

- To check commit log and syntax of XX.po:

git-po-helper check-po XX.po
git-po-helper check-commits

Run "git-po-helper" without arguments to show usage.
