I'm sorry. I read your email so quickly that I didn't notice you were
asking more than just a commit of gnome-getting-started-docs. Anyway, I
already committed this translation for you guys.

Indeed, Damned-Lies doesn't support sending first translation of
documentation at the moment, in spite of accepting updates for existent
translations.

So, at the moment, you need to
1) have Git account in GNOME with write permission;
2) git clone the desired module;
3) manually edit the help' Makefile.am file (normally inside directory
help/ or gnome-help/) adding your language code where appropriate;
4) create your language directory (e.g. 'pt') inside the help files'
directory and put your translation in it with filename <language code>.po
(e.g. pt.po).
5) commit + push translation with git

For example:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-getting-started-docs/commit/?id=c704b36f6c36c2c594d11462b99ef2cbd70965b4

For information on Git usage, see
https://wiki.gnome.org/TranslationProject/GitHowTo

If you don't have GNOME account with Git permission, you'll need to
request. I don't know what is the current policy on it, but some
information cane be found in:
https://wiki.gnome.org/AccountsTeam/NewAccounts

Alternatively, you can ask someone in this list to commit for you.

Regards,
Rafael Fontenelle
