Mainly comments on the Swedish translation below, but there are a few
references to the English messages as well.

Thanks.

Cc'ing TP-SV as I posted the translation for review there as well.

quoted

quoted

+#: builtin/commit.c:380
+msgid "cannot do a partial commit during a merge."
+msgstr "kan inte utföra en delvis incheckning under en sammanslagning."

"delvis" -> "partiell"

Is that better? Sounds a bit to technical to me.

Well, "en delvis incheckning" doesn't sound like correct Swedish...

[cut]

quoted

quoted

+#: builtin/commit.c:737
+msgid "Error building trees"
+msgstr "Fel vid byggande av träd"

"byggande av träd" -> "trädbygge" ?

That sounds even weirder to me.

Hmm, you may be right. Alternatives for "byggande" is
"konstruktion" and "skapande", don't know if either of those
make it sound better.

quoted

+#: builtin/describe.c:205
+#, c-format
+msgid "annotated tag %s not available"
+msgstr "den dekorerade taggen %s inte tillgänglig"

"dekorerade" -> "annoterade"

Is that a word?

Yes. At least it is in SAOL which I think should be indicative 
of its existence ;)

[cut]

quoted

+#: builtin/fetch.c:917
+msgid "Fetching a group and specifying refspecs does not make sense"
+msgstr "Kan inte hämta från grupp och ange referensspecifikationer"

"från" -> "en" ?

Well, I was thinking "fetch" -> "hämta från", and just dropped the
"en".

Ok.

[cut]

quoted

quoted

+#: builtin/grep.c:581
+#, c-format
+msgid "Failed to chdir: %s"
+msgstr "Kunde inte byta katalog (chdir): %s"

I think you can skip the " (chdir)" explanation without
loss of information.

As long as the original string uses the system call reference, and not
the action, I will keep it in the translation.

Ok (guess the English message could do with an update...)

quoted

quoted

+#: builtin/grep.c:703
+#, c-format
+msgid "unable to grep from object of type %s"
+msgstr "Kunde inte \"grep\" från objekt av typen %s"

"\"grep\"" -> "greppa" ?

That's a word that means something else... I don't really have any good
idea on how to translate "grep" when used as a verb...

Yeah, I know... I've no better suggestion I'm afraid.

[cut]

quoted

quoted

+#: builtin/log.c:825
+#, c-format
+msgid "insane in-reply-to: %s"
+msgstr "tokigt in-reply-to: %s"

"tokigt" -> "tokig"

My sense of language says that it should be "neutrum", so "tokigt".

Well, I read it with an implicit "header" (i.e., as "insane 
in-reply-to header: %s")...

[cut]

quoted

quoted

+#: builtin/merge.c:651
+#, c-format
+msgid "Unknown option for merge-recursive: -X%s"
+msgstr "Felaktig flagga för merge-recursive: -X%s"

"merge-recursive" -> "rekursiv ihopslagning" ?

No, merge-recursive is a name of a merge strategy.

Maybe add quotes around it then do indicate that?

quoted

quoted

+#: builtin/merge.c:1271
+#, c-format
+msgid "Using the %s to prepare resolving by hand.\n"
+msgstr "Använder %s för att förbereda lösning för hand.\n"

"%s" -> "strategin %s" ?

Yeah. The English string should probably also be fixed, though.

Agree.

quoted

quoted

+#: builtin/mv.c:206
+#, c-format
+msgid "Renaming %s to %s\n"
+msgstr "Byter namn på %s till %s\n"

"Byter namn på" -> "Döper om" ?

I've used "byta namn" in other places, so if I change here, I should
change it globally.

Either should work I guess...

+#: builtin/push.c:77
+#, c-format
+msgid "The current branch %s is tracking multiple branches, refusing to push."
+msgstr "Den aktuella grenen %s spårar flera grenar, vägrar sända."

"sända" -> "trycka iväg" ?

"Trycka iväg" sounds horrible, IMHO. I used "Sänd" in the git-gui
translation of "Push". As long as git doesn't grow a "git send"
command, I think that should be OK.

Ok.

+#: builtin/push.c:132

+"To prevent you from losing history, non-fast-forward updates were

detaljer.\n"

quoted

"icke snabbspolande" -> "icke-snabbspolande"

Changed.

quoted

"t.ex" -> "t ex"

I think it looks clearer with the full stop.

Then it should be "t. ex." according to SAOL.

instead."

quoted

quoted

+msgstr "--mixed rekommenderas inte med sökvägar; använd \"git reset

quoted

"." -> " istället."

I dropped it to fit an 80 character line.

Ok.

quoted

quoted

+#: builtin/revert.c:270
+#, c-format
+msgid "Error wrapping up %s"
+msgstr "Fel vid ombrytning av %s"

I do not think this "wrapping up" refers to reformatting of the commit
message. I think it refers to finishing writing the message (a rephrasing
of the English message is advisable). Thus the Swedish translation should
probably be:

"Fel vid avslutandet av %s"

Are you sure about that? I was unable to figure it out when I looked at
it.

I am pretty sure. That error message is output in case a file
called "somefile.lock" cannot be closed and renamed to "somefile" 
(see lockfile.c:commit_lock_file().)

[cut]

quoted

quoted

+#: builtin/shortlog.c:161
+#, c-format
+msgid "Missing author: %s"
+msgstr "Saknad författare: %s"

"Saknad" -> "Saknar"

I think "missing" it is an adjective and not a verb here. The message
is clear either way.

Ok.

[cut]

quoted

quoted

+#: builtin/tag.c:196
+msgid "gpg did not accept the tag data"
+msgstr "gpg godtog inte taggdata"

"taggdata" -> "taggdatan"

"taggdatana" in that case. "data" is always plural.

Maybe better to use "tagginformationen"?

+#: git-am.sh:120

+"Did you hand edit your patch?\n"
+"It does not apply to blobs recorded in its index."
+msgstr ""
+"Vill du handredigera din patch?\n"
+"Den kan inte appliceras på blobbar som antecknats i dess index."

"Vill du handredigera" -> "Handredigerade du"

Fixed.

quoted

"antecknats" -> "finns"

That's ambiguous. Changed second sentence to:
"Den kan inte appliceras på de blobbar som beskrivs i dess index."

Good.
