Hmph.  Why would that be a bad thing in the first place?
For example, for the diff.c::print_stat_summary() message, you have this
translation:

>  1 个文件被修改,插入 3 行(+),删除 3 行(-)

where the original would be:

   %d file changed, %d insertions(+), %d deletions(-).

and I would imagine that it entirely is plausible if a native reader would
wish to read a Japanese translation like this:

   1個のファイルを変更、挿入 3 行(+)、削除 3 行(-)

without using ASCII comma, but using "、" instead.
