Currently translate-toolkit 1.8.1 is fine, but I filed a bug
(http://bugs.locamotion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1883) because I think it
is easier to do the language fallback with translate-toolkit, than to
fix fdo#35067 and fdo#35068. The progress there looks promising. When
it is fixed, we need to upgrade translate-toolkit in our sources, too.

Please find attached a patch which implements a .gitattribute filter
for *.po files. If we do not wrap the lines in po files, then we get
less useless noise in diffs (tools tend to wrap the same content
differently). May I push it?

Thanks,
Andras
