Hi Junio and members of German l10n team,

Ralf send me two pull requests with improvement of Git German translation.
All look fine except that one commit (fbd994d) by Thomas hacks a file
"git-gui/po/de.po", which is outside of "po/" directory.
Sorry, but I cannot take this tree for two reasons:

 - If the state of the tree needs to be confirmed by l10n team, and it is
   possible that you need to cancel this pull request based on their
   feedback, I cannot pull it from you right now; otherwise your corrected
   history won't fast-forward anymore.  So the message should either be
   "Please make sure I have what l10n teams wanted to send out" to them,
   or "I am confident that l10n teams are happy with this, please pull" to
   me, but cannot be both.

 - git-gui/ part of my tree is maintained without the rest of git.git/
   tree by Pat Thoyts, and an update needs to go through that tree. I
   cannot take a change directly to that part.  Doing so would make
   it impossible to update git-gui/ project independently.

Please redo your tree by having the originating author separate the
git-gui part out, make sure everybody on the l10n team is happy with the
result, and then throw me another pull request.  Also arrange the git-gui
patch to go through Pat.

By the way, a change to the 'master' track is exactly the same deal, but
I would suspect that typically you would want your pull request for 'master'
a superset of your 'maint', so please hold off throwing a pull request for
'master' while it still is possible that you might need to rewind and
rebuild your 'maint'.

Thanks.
