Here is my bisect dunno patch series again.
Good work on the series, Christian, but don't you think that
"unknown" would sound a little bit better than "dunno"? For people
who don't speak English as a second language "dunno" might not be
immediately clear.
"undecided"?
I choosed "dunno" because that was what Dscho suggested in this thread:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/53584/focus=53595
I would think that tongue-in-cheek.  In case it was serious, I'd
consider it one of those cases where it would make good sense to
overrule the geek penchant for quirkiness.

Just think about the nuisance of finding adequate translations in
i18n: "Woaßnet", "Eh?", "Chepas" etc.

Well, that won't be a problem, as commands and their subcommands and
options aren't translated.
