Dev translations

The team does not control or manage the translations, we just periodically pull those from for languages that are 75% complete to include them into the current development stream.

How to update English translations

.NET 6.0 (v4+)

  • Run the script update-loc.cmd that you will find at the repository root folder.

  • As a result, you should see two changed files: English.xlf and English.Plugins.xlf (optional)

    ⚠️ If you have the Plugin Manager installed, do not commit the following addition because the AppVeyor build would fail:

    <file datatype="plaintext" original="Plugin" source-language="en">
  <body>
    <trans-unit id="Description.Text">
      <source>Plugin Manager</source>
      <target />
    </trans-unit>
  </body>
</file>

    (On AppVeyor, we run the translations before we import the Plugin Manager, thus no entry for it would be added.)

v3.4 and v3.5

  • Open your favourite command line and run the following command:

    PS> .\build.cmd -loc

  • As a result, you should see two changed files: English.xlf and English.Plugins.xlf (optional)

    ⚠️ If you have the Plugin Manager installed, do not commit the following addition because the AppVeyor build would fail:

    <file datatype="plaintext" original="Plugin" source-language="en">
  <body>
    <trans-unit id="Description.Text">
      <source>Plugin Manager</source>
      <target />
    </trans-unit>
  </body>
</file>

How to update non-English translations

The translations are managed by a community at .

Note: To help you, you could have a look at the git .po translation file of your languages as a reference on how some git notions are translated. Some languages has even a lexicon at the top of the file for git main notions.
