'gittutorial(7)' translation
Hi!
I'm willing to translate publication located at http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/gittutorial.html to the Belorussian language (my mother tongue). What I'm asking for is your written permission, so you don't mind after I'll post the translation to my blog. The translation is intended only for web, no print copies planned. Visitors of your website, who come from Minsk (Belorussia) will be the ones, who will read this blogpost, that's the only way to spread them, no additional instruments we can use. Every translation we ever do does not costs a penny for the webpage, which is translated. All we ask is to link back in whatever way you feel confident about it.
Thank you for the article.
You can leave a voice message and I will call you back, if you prefer a call instead of emails.
Sincerely,
Bohdan Zograf

Hi,
Was a pleasure to translate this publication! It's kinda fresh and related to my professional interests, so I thought - why not, if the author allows to do so.

Posted my Belorussian translation on

It's great that you've translated it, I'm not sure where this should be linked from in Git's documentation, if at all.
I'm currently working no getting i18n support for Git's core commands up and running, after that I wanted to try getting support for
http://po4a.alioth.debian.org/ going.
That we way could translate any of our documentation and ship it as part of Git itself, so you could have a Russian gittutorial manpage installed along with Git.

Dear Ævar,
Russian != Belorussian, and it might insult some Belorussians (from my personal experience) by calling their language "Russian". Belorussian is quite rare and people are trying to save it as hard as they can from Russian influence. It is a tough problem..

They even have statue in Minsk for the only letter that exists in Belorussian, but does not exist in Russian: ў.
I just wanted you to know that. Simple "apologies" might be a very nice thing.
Sorry about that. I just glanced at the E-Mail and the translation itself looked similar to Russian to my untrained eyes.
I stand corrected.
