#5061: update-po keep old strings
---------------------+---------------------------
 Reporter:  robe     |      Owner:  pramsey
     Type:  defect   |     Status:  new
 Priority:  medium   |  Milestone:  PostGIS 3.3.0
Component:  postgis  |    Version:  master
 Keywords:           |
---------------------+---------------------------
 I noticed that when I enabled msgmerge on one of the components in weblate
 - reference_output.xml

 enabled with settings

  * Keep previous msgids of translated strings
  * Use fuzzy matching enabled


 It kept the old english string as a comment and added the new one (pushed
 that back to repo)

 What is nice about this is on the interface, it shows to the user the
 original string the translation was based on, and crosses inserts what was
 changed in red and green so the user knows exactly how to fix the
 translation and that it needs fixing.

 I think we should do this as well in our update-po
