Yes, please unmark the string for translation.

Translator comments are not added to the pot file (which is generated),
but directly to the C code. In this case though the message should
simply not be marked for translation at all.

git is the source control system which is used to store GIMP's source.
The act of updating the source is called a "commit" and each such
"commit" has it's unique identifier.
So basically, a commit identifier is like a version number (the %s in
the string will be replaced with that identifier)

I'm not sure this should be translated though, since git is a name of
a tool and "commit" is a git specific term which should probably be
kept untranslated (I saw the term "commit" in other non-English
articles so it's probably best not to translate it).

I'll add a comment to the file as soon as I get to a non-public computer.

I forgot: perhaps a comment inside the .pot file would be useful.
