You mean the po-format, which should be taken care of, if you, for
example, use KBabel. Ok, agreed, would make me *very* unhappy too. I
believe a pre-commit step to simply check the format is ok should
suffice. Good idea.
The pre-commit syntax check is already in place. If "msgfmt" of the po
file produce errors, the commit is not allowed.
