We could base this on the po-file pre-commit msgfmt check, but make it a
generic post-commit hook that, for po file changes, sends a mail to
'gnomeweb progress gnome org' (the user that owns /var/www/damned-lies)
with a subject that gnomeweb's procmail can identify and run a script
on. This script would just parse REPO and REV out of the message and
pass it to update-stats.py. Much like the website auto-update stuff.

This'd work too, but'd be a bit more hackish.
