That should be added then; ;)
some algorithm along the lines of
  while (!git push) {
    if (!git pull --rebase) { # sorry, not working out...
     git reset --hard origin/master;
     quit;
    }
  }

It would be great to have the functionality in place for amarok/plasma to go 
git.
I'm a bit confused about the conclusion we don't want to have i18n in git. 
There are loads of solutions to migrate, including having nice GUI tools so 
the user never need to see a command line.
Keeping svn seems a bit odd to me; an opt-out solution. Not solving the 
problem but avoiding it with the side effect of having to keep an svn server 
up and running :/

So, like Matt I was under the impression we wanted to port script to 
basically do exactly what it did before, but now using git.
