Re: Translating GIMP from GIMP master (is wrong)

[Rūdolfs Mazurs <rudolfs mazurs gmail com>]

Hello, first time gimp user.

Following instructions "How to use Git for GNOME translators" I cloned
gimp repo and switched to branch gimp-2-8, but for my locale the pot
template was generated on:
2011-12-05 14:02+0000
but the pot file on damn lies was generated on:
2012-05-08 22:23+0000

What is going on here?
