Dear Rafael,
Thank you for detailed message! I just want to make sure all Tajik translation are committed correctly, so we do not miss a word for the next release. I will continue to commit translations to "master" only and to a 'gnome-3-10' git branch if information about it available on the Damned Lies.

As you mentioned, some modules doesn't have a 'gnome-3-10' git branch. I'm not sure why, but, for you as a translator/coordinator, it means that you have to commit to 'master' only. There are other exceptions that have different names of git branch. Gtk+, for example, have git branch names like 'gtk-3-8'. Releated to your question, yes. You should translate branches available in Damned Lies. On the other side, If Damned Lies don't show a 'gnome-3-10' git branch, this git branch is probably not ready for translators or doesn't even exist. 2013/9/18 Victor Ibragimov <victor.ibragi...@gmail.com> "gnome-online-accounts", "gnome-photos" and "gnome-terminal" committed to both master and gnome-3-10. And it seems to be that "gnome-3-10" is not yet available for all modules. When you suggest to commit to both "master" and "gnome-3-10" do you mean that is possible to commit to both branches just when "gnome-3-10" is shown under the "Branch" on Damned Lies site as a reference?

If translations or updates are committed to gnome-3-6 now - is this a waste of time, as gnome-3-6 will not be released anymore? What if translations and updates are committed only to gnome-3-10? or/and only to master? or why to commit to both gnome-3-10 and master? Thank you, Victor A 'gnome-3-10' git branch is planned to be released together with GNOME 3.10. The 'master' is the latest git branch ever of a module - every future new branch will be forked from 'master' (e.g. 'gnome-3-12' would be a fork of 'master'). Commiting translations to gnome-3-6 is waste of time at the moment, because a commit would only be of any of use if the software will have a new release. So, for example, Gtk+ 3.6.0 won't be releasing another minor version adn therefore it wouldn't make sense wasting translation effort on it. Obsolete, in resume. Commit translations only to 'master' and not to 'gnome-3-10' will result in your translation NOT being available in GNOME 3.10 -- which I think is not a good idea. Commit translations only to 'gnome-3-10' and not to 'master' will result in the translations being available in GNOME 3.10, however your lastest ever translation state will be out-of-dated -- your effort in GNOME 3.10 wouldn't be available in GNOME 3.12, for example. So, best you can do right now (close to a new GNOME release) is to commit to 'gnome-3-10' git branch and, then, run a git cherry-pick (more information in the URL mentioned by Piotr).
