Re: [PATCH] WIP: begin to translate git with gettext

Is it possible that you don't have is_IS language support?  On Ubuntu
this comes from a package like language-pack-is-base.

I tried your po entries in a file named po/is.po, and it didn't work.
When I installed language-pack-is-base, it did.

$ unset LANGUAGE LC_MESSAGES; export LANG=is_IS.UTF-8
$ /usr/local/jepler/git/bin/git status | head -1
# A greininni master

Comparing the bad strace with the good, and excluding ENOENT opens, it's
the presence of the is_IS language pack that is the first difference.
