I can believe if this was intentionally left untranslated for the
reasons you stated. Without introducing "message ID" that can be
universally readable, so that customers can report "We got E42234
when running Git version 1.2.3.4", that is the best we could do.
But I am OK to see this translated, too.
Thanks.
