Okay.
Unfortunately, I have to focus on the correctness of the code at the
moment (and Git for Windows does ship *without* translations for the time
being anyway, mostly to save on space, but also because users complained).
So I will take care of this after v2.10.0.
For the record, how is this supposed to be handled, in particular when I
introduce a new action whose action_name(opts) will be "rebase -i"? Do I
really need to repeat myself three times?
Ciao,
