The files would be inside the po directory. Since Gnome repository has now moved to git, 'master' on the l10n.gnome.org page indicates that the 'po' directory of the 'master' branch is the one that would accept the translations.

ok.
so i cloned vinagre this morning.
yes, there is a po folder.
the ta.po that i am interested in belongs to gnome 2.26
damned lies says there is a fuzzy string and one untranslated entry.
i examine the file and there are none untranslated nor a fuzzy one.

i download the file from damed lies and sure, there are two strings that need correction.
so what do i do?

If any other branch other than 'master' (e.g. 'gnome-2-28') is indicated then the 'po' directory of that branch would be the correct place to accept translations. However, the 'master' and other branches (like 'gnome-2-28') would not be available as separate folders. You have to activate these branches by using the git command (git checkout <branchname>). Unlike svn, 'git checkout' here would activate the required branch in your cloned repository. The active branch can be checked with the command: 'git branch -a'. The active branch is marked with an asterix.

i have checked this and the master is the active one.


A very nice tutorial written by Simos is available here:

seen, read it and it has been open while i worked on this problems
