Hello at all,
the process which is already implemented is:
I wrote a shell script which export every night (2 am CET) the data from
the database to have recent po files. Then I copy them into my home
folder at the "pootle" server, where I commit it into a git repo.
Then I can get the po files to my own system to generate the sdf files.
this step was required as log as I had to use ubuntu 18.04.
There is no problem to give more persons access to the group of my home
folder.
Kind regards
Mechtilde

Hello all,
I am still working myself into Pootle.
Pootle stores the translation at default on the filesystem. There is a
backend which can utilize git. Pootle commit changes on the translation
towards the git repository.
It would give us maybe the opportunity to maintain different Iteration of
OpenOffice Translation texts.
Storing any development effort into a version control system is IMHO a
good idea.
I think that the best way to do it, would be the easiest, technically
speaking.
For example: if you want to configure Pootle to use Git, you will have
to let it authenticate in some ways. If it's easy, then go ahead!
The alternative would be having someone manually pushing changes from
the filesystem into the repository. This could be done on a periodic
basis; say every two weeks.
To summarize: +1 for Git, in whatever way it is easiest to configure
and to maintain.
For example. 4.1.x and 4.2.x Translation sets do not match. Maybe we could
use Git to have a 4.2.x branch,another branch will contain 4.1.x Translation
files.
I agree that branches would be most useful.
We could then think of a Version Mapping and a back push translation system.
This is just a crazy Idea at this moment, to manage the string changes
between Versions.
What do you mean exactly?
I would expect l10n-savy developers to push changes from the Pootle
development repository into AOO41X or other branches, at appropriate
times (for example, before a beta release).
What do you think? Is this an Idea to look into? Please write me your
opinion. Thanks.
I hope this helps.
Best regards,
