Description

Problem

We do not yet document when and how to update the translation files. When running makemessages after #4491, I saw more changes than I expected.

Proposed solution

  • Clean up the changes currently generated by the makemessages command
  • Document the process that needs to be used for future dev branches
  • Add developer documentation for translations
