which of the two are the lesser evil, so both are included.

If you make changes to strings in Torbutton, you need to rebuild the
templates in torbutton/trans_tools/pootle/templates. This is done via:
moz2po -P -i torbutton/src/chrome/locale/en/ -o torbutton/trans_tools/templates/
You now have two options:
Option 1 (The Pootle Web UI Way):
View then commit the changes to the template with:
svn diff torbutton/trans_tools/templates/
svn commit torbutton/trans_tools/templates/
Then poke Jake to 'svn up' on the Pootle side. If you do this enough
times, he may give you a button to click to update templates in Pootle,
or maybe even an account on the Pootle server. Persistence is a virtue.
You then need to go to the Pootle website and click the checkbox next to
every language on:
https://translation.torproject.org/projects/torbutton/admin.html
and then click "Update Languages" at the bottom.
You then need to go to each language and go to "Editing Options" and click
"Commit" for each one.
You then need to 'svn up' locally, and follow the procedure above for
rebuilding your .dtd and .properties files.
Yes, this sucks. :/
Option 2 (Use your own msgmerge: YMMV, may change .po flags and formatting):
Run msgmerge yourself for each language:
cd torbutton/trans_tools
for i in `ls -1 pootle`
do
msgmerge -U ./pootle/$i/torbutton.dtd.po ./pootle/templates/torbutton.dtd.pot
msgmerge -U ./pootle/$i/torbutton.properties.po ./pootle/templates/torbutton.properties.pot
done
svn diff pootle
svn commit pootle
Then poke Jake to 'svn up' on the Pootle side. If you do this enough times,
he may give you a button on Pootle, or maybe even an account on the Pootle
server. Persistence is a virtue.
You may notice that some .po file flags and string formatting have changed
with this method, depending on your gettext version. It is unclear if this
is a problem. Please update this doc if you hit a landmine and everything
breaks :)
After this process is done, you then need to regenerate the mozilla
.dtd and .properties files as specified above.
