Ok Tim, here is my suggestion.
Take a look at Transifex.
MATE, XFCE, Pidgin, XMBC and thousands of other projects use it.
It simplifies the work of the translator (and translation team) so much.
You upload the .pot, create the language teams, the translator can download
it for offline translation
and upload it when it's done. They can translate it online as well and you
can see the stats and get
the translated .po files and merge them into your source whenever you want
to.
Once the language team is created the team leader looks after the running
of the team.

I'm
starting to wonder if instead of allowing direct GIT
access to the i18n tree we may need to have a service acting as
middleman,
accepting modified .po files and merging them into the tree.
That is what I would do (as I have suggested a few times already).
I haven't seen the suggestions, sorry. Been busy with fixing bugs.
I will need to do some research on the best way to implement this. The
absolute best would be some kind of GIT pre-commit hook that rewrites the
commit with msgmerge, but I don't know if that's even possible. If not, I
know QuickBuild has some kind of multi-user translation manager that might
be able to be used.
I've disabled the i18n updater until we can figure this out. I can always
give it a manual run before R14 release.
