Hi!

Some general translation comments (I don't particularly know about Spanish).

Alejandro Riveira Fernández:

I'm open to sugestions. the same problem with "commit" (either verb or
noun) tracking branch, push ( propagar is ok? ) etc...

For my translation, I used the translated versions of "check-in" (as in to check-in to a flight) for "commit", for "branch" I used the same word as for a branch on a tree, and for "push", I translated as "send". If you can't find a direct translation, finding a simpler synonym in English is usually a good way to go.

Also do check if there are translated GUIs for other version control software, and try to be consistent with them.

I'm not sure what the standard translation of EOF is, but seeing as it stands for "End Of File" it wouldn't surprise me if there is something similar in Spanish like "FDA" (Fin De Archivo) or something similar...?

I think people use the EOF just like they use NULL or cd-rom or many other neologism

If there is doubt, it is usually better to spell it out, possibly keeping the original abbreviation (such as writing "EOF (end of file)", with "end of file" translated).
