It is not obvious to me where git_usage_string is looked up in the
message catalog. Should this not be
usage(_(git_usage_string));
(here and in later instances)? It is used that way in builtin/help.c,
for example.

We have settled with lower-case letters at the beginning of error
messages. (See Documentation/CodingGuidelines, "Error Messages".) You
could fix that while you are touching die, die_errno, etc, messages.

I notice you change past tense to present tense in some cases. IMO, this
makes the messages more consistent. Good.
I'm not a friend of geeky abbreviations like "chdir" or "cwd" in
user-visible messages, and I would have taken the opportunity to change
the messages accordingly. This is really only my personal taste, though,
and it's possible that I'm alone in this camp.

Here is a certain class of errors: They should occur only rarely
(actually, is that true?) Then it is useful to have the function name in
the message. Which rises the question: why translate them at all? It's
possible that translators turn the message into unusable gibberish just
to please their language. All of this is only IMHO; I don't use
translated Git.
