Thanks for helping to solve this silly Git issue.  However, I do not
understand, how can Git know what original version was translated?

It is perfectly possible that the translater copies the entire site
(currently identifying and freezing the original copy by adding Git
Committish: <> in those files), translates all files, and commits 2
weeks later.  In the mean time, the original site has seen several
updates.

Using this patch, will the correct diff be shown to the translator to
help her incorporating the changes made in the mean time?

Greetings,
Jan.
