Description jibecfed 2020-08-11 17:24:21 UTC

Hello, the Fedora project migrates its translation platform to Weblate [1].

This tool directly interact with your git repository, and requires us to know:

* [mandatory] which branch is your development branch?
* [mandatory] have you merged latest translation from Zanata and locked the project?
* [info] Weblate will handle updates when pot file changes, don't edit po files for this [2]
* [optional] what is the license of translation? (please use a code from https://spdx.org/licenses/)
* [optional] do you have any announcement/warning you would like to display to the translators? (it will be displayed in Weblate)
* [optional] do you need us to activate any specific checks? (this is a setting per component [3])
* [optional] do you need us to automatically detect new translation files? (typical usecase: website translation with one translation file per page)

Please note:

* For github and gitlab hosted projects, Weblate open pull request. For other git hosting, you'll have to add a key to allow commits.
* In Weblate's vocable, one project is a group of component. Each component is a translation file. You can have many projects or many components or both.
* You can change your mind over time, just reach trans.org

There is (intentionally) no way to push stuff to our git repository.
Can it email me patches instead?  Or push to another git repo which
we would periodically pull from?

Anyway the upstream repo is: http://git.annexia.org/?p=virt-top.git;a=summary
and here are the answers to your other questions:

> * [mandatory] which branch is your development branch?

master

> * [mandatory] have you merged latest translation from Zanata and locked the
> project?

Yes: https://fedora.zanata.org/project/view/virt-top/settings

> * [info] Weblate will handle updates when pot file changes, don't edit po
> files for this [2]
> * [optional] what is the license of translation? (please use a code from
> https://spdx.org/licenses/)

GPL-2.0-or-later

> to the translators? (it will be displayed in Weblate)

no

> * [optional] do you need us to activate any specific checks? (this is a

no

unclear, assume no for now

I'm not aware of email notification coming from Weblate to send changes. The idea of Weblate is to provide automation to prevent such tasks ;)

I think you may use the notification system in your profile to do so: https://translate.fedoraproject.org/accounts/profile/#notifications



Project was configured: https://translate.fedoraproject.org/projects/virt-top/master/
You are admin.

You may access weblate's git repository through: https://translate.fedoraproject.org/git/virt-top/master/

First commit will be big as it will update all existing po files.
