The glossary may also be a good help:

I think we should follow this Glossary. Git-gui users should not be
forced to learn again. Learning git is already enough work.

Of course. Here it is: git://repo.or.cz/srv/git/gitman-de.git
(You may blame me now for using a public repository.)
I did create the mob user ( http://repo.or.cz/mob.html ) and it's
branch. Pushing only over ssh.
I used the repository of git from yesterday.
The only translated file at the moment is gittutorial-de.txt.
Every file without -de at its end is the original English file.
DO NOT MODIFY them.
If files with -de at their end have English passages or are completely
English means, they haven't been translated.
Note: You should fix any Eszett errors, I'm Swiss, so i was unable to
insert any Eszetts.

A good translation will translate those words.  However, since the
commandline interface uses the English words, you'll be forced to
re-explain that relationship a lot of times (using parenthesis, most
likely).

I think we should avoid this. It just makes the text more unclear and
harder to understand. Instead, we should provide something like
"gitglossary-de.1", so interested users can look up our translations of
English words.

Yes, I exactly know what you mean and I would like to keep some terms,
but they were translated to German and so I feel forced to copy the
glossary of git-gui.
