As I probably should write in the commit message, this terminology
is taken directly from Subversion's po/pl.po file. Subversion has
IMHO quite good Polish translation.
On the other hand no other *.po file in Git has glossary in
comments...

The problem is that "commit" might be a verb ('to commit'), where I think
"zatwierdzenie zmian" is a good translation, and "commit" might also be
used as a noun ('a commit'), where I think it should be probably translated
as "wersja" (eng. version) or "zmiana" (eng. change).
Nb. it is a good idea to take into account existing Mercurial translation
into Polish.

"Odgałęzienie" is what Subversion uses, but you are right that "gałąź"
might be better. Though in this case the glossary cannot be marked
as coming from Subversion...

I think that "etykieta" (eng. label) has already established different
meaning in Polish computer terminology for a "goto label".
"Metka" might be a good solution (it is mainly used in Polish to mean
textile labels), though I wonder if using English term "tag" (which
in Polish is used in computer science to mean metadata tag or markup
language tag) wouldn't be better as it is already computer term.

Well, in Subversion it is about merging changes, not branches ;-)))

I'd have to check how other programs translate this. I think
at least "usage: " in '-h' output is translated as "użycie: ",
though I am not sure if it is really a good translation to recommend.

Right.

Well, anyway I don't think this is needed for git translation.
