Fwd: Copying po/docbook files to repositories nightly

[Johnny Jazeix]

Hi,

for information for the developers who are not in the mailing lists where
the message was sent.

Po files (translation files) are now copied each day within the repository
under the poqm folder.
For GCompris, we can still ignore the po/ folder in git as it would contain
gcompris_lang and gcompris-voices but these files are not directly used
within the application so we don't need them to be copied in git.

Cheers,

Johny

This has now been enabled for master branch and according to scripty logs
all
seems to have worked.

Please inspect your repositories and make sure the po files are there where
they should and nothing broke.

Also please make sure you adapt your releasing scripts if you release from
master.
