[Qgis-community-team] Transifex updates

[Tim Sutton]

Hi All

Unless there are other pending issues, I think I am pretty much
finished configuring and understanding transifex for the
QGIS-Documentation repo. Here is the current status:

* The transifex project reflects documentation for v1.8 of the manual
* Last night I pushed all existing translations up to the project so
it should reflect the current translation state of each language.
Please take a look at your language and see if this is indeed the
case.
* I've written a script to automate the process of pushing language
files - this is available under scripts/create-transifex-resources.sh
and is backported to both 1.8 and master branches.
* To 'download' translation updates to the git repository Otto or
other git committers should follow this procedure:

Things that only need to be done once:

sudo pip install transifex-client
cd /tmp
tx init

Take the defaults and enter your password when prompted. Note that you
password is stored in clear text in ~/.transifexrc

Now go to your local QGIS-Documentation repo and do this everytime you
want to fetch updates:

tx pull
git status
git add [any new language files)
git commit -m "Updated i18n resources from Transifex" i18n

To push any local changes to transifex (for example if you did
translation work locally using QtLinguist):

scripts/create-transifex-resources.sh

I would greatly appreciate if someone could test the above procedures
and then transpose the information above into the README.rst file in
the base of the documentation tree.

I am now going to go on and do the same for the QGIS Training manual
and the QGIS application itself.

Best regards

Tim
