 Git is still partly i18n-ized, turning a few strings back does not

More than one people explicitly said that they do not want to see
this in Klingon.  Even if the system is fully internationalized,
these "... (+), ... (-)" should never be localized, just like we
will never localize "diff --git", "index f00f..abcd", etc.

In other words, it is not a "regression" to begin with.  Turning
this back to "C" is a bugfix.  We shouldn't have had marked it with
_() in the first place.
 If you mean projectlang vs a local language, I looked into that and I
 don't think we could support two non-C languages using standard
 gettext interface. So it's either "C vs another", or make use of
 unofficial gettext features, or roll your own.
Yeah, that is true, too.
