Are we sure we want non-technical translators to translate Git, a
highly technical program with many technical terms?

I'm guessing that Git probably should be translated by it's users,
because we have a lot of Git-jargon that is difficult for people who
doesn't know Git to translate. But perhaps an initial translation for
each language is enough to establish a language-specific translation
of all Git-jargon, and then afterwards we can get help from
non-technical people to improve the language? I'm just asking, I don't
know how Transifex works at all...
