I think we need to keep gfs2-utils.pot in the git repo so that we have 
one single "master" translation template which should be used (by 
Transifex, translators, ...) to translate gfs2-utils.

When string changes occur (and once per release, minimum) we should 
regenerate the master gfs2-utils.pot and then merge those changes into 
the existing .po files and commit. That way we get full control over the 
current state of the single gfs2-utils.pot which is used by everyone.
