[PATCH 2/9] gitk i18n implementation: Import msgcat for message string translation; load translation catalogs.

From: Christian Stimming <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:43:48
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

By setting the environment variable GITK_MSGSDIR, one can manually
set the directory where the .msg files are located. This is quite handy 
during development with GITK_MSGSDIR=po.
