If you add a new file to our git tree and that file has translatable
strings in it (e.g. a string enclosed in _()) then you must edit the file
install/po/Makefile.in
and add the file to one of the POTFILES list (currently there are two
POTFILES lists, one for python sources and one for C sources). If the
source code file is not listed in install/po/Makefile.in we won't pick
up the translations for it. Sorry for introducing an extra manual step
when adding a file but there is no way to automate this.
If the new file is neither a python file nor a C file you will need to
create a new POTFILES list for the language type (language as in source
code language) and update the update-pot target in the Makefile.in to
include the new POTFILES list (making sure to pay attention to the
--language argument of xgettext).
