Waere es sinnvoll Staging-Area in Staging-Bereich umzubenennen?
"Staging" ist wohl ein eher fester Term mit dem man den index/staging area
assoziert, aber "Area" 'doesn't ring a bell for me'.

Staging-Bereich would be Denglish - half German and halb Englisch.

In any case, the term staging area is highly confusing in this context:
It really is the index, and in this case the user has not "staged
anything for commit" in the index. The index is used for storing
information during the 3way merge. This is why we refused to replace
"index/cache" by "staging area" in the original git documentation.

The de l10n team decided to use "Staging-Area" as the translation for
"index" (as far as I can see), and therefore I kept this term: It is
important to translate the same concept in the same way consistently in
all places. Changing the translation of "index" would be a major
decision and a major patch. (I'd vote for "Index".)

The initial version of the glossary of git.git's de.po has been developed in
thread [1], where "Index" was part of, initially. We ended up only using
"Staging-Area" for "index", because people might understand "Index"
as a book's index or database's index [2].

Git itself uses the term "staging area" *very* rarely. "index" would be a
Git term we don't translate, but there's also the German word "Index"
and hence we might confuse users. However, I still think it may only be
confusing for absolute newbies, but give a benefit for users who knows
about git's index. I'll send a patch for this change.

Thanks

This respects the ellipsis style used in de.po.

[PATCH 3/3] l10: de.po: translation fix for fall-back to 3way merge

[Michael J Gruber]

The English version is correct, but misleading: It is not the 3way merge
that is being patched also, but that is being fallen back to also.

The German version translates the former meaning. Make it translate the
latter.

Notes:
    Really, it would be clearer to say "mittels 3-Wege-Merge", and
    also "using 3way merge" in the original (rather than "and").
    But I tried to stay as close as possible to both the English version
    and the existing translation.
