Auto-updating with scripts directly in the repository is a dangerous
thing, since it causes conflicts (you check out a file to work on it,
then the script would update it in the mean time, and then you would
have a conflict when you commit your work back to the repository).
Such conflicts are both a waste of time and time consuming to resolve,
so this is not the way it's done in the GNOME repository. Instead, you
have Damned Lies, from which you can always get a fresh po file to
start your work on, if you do not want to run intltool-update
yourself.
