Ok so just to clear things and not to start a flame-war, I just want to use my script to commit a bunch of translations, only that. If i have to commit 20 PO files with just one string modified throught DL I will simply ignore them because all the click-work needed to do it it's not worth for me.
I only aim to work in translations and make my work as efficient as possible. Dont mind I have Git access or web access, but if I have to spend more time doing the commits manually than translating maybe we are doing something wrong. I agree we have always tried to reduce git access, but I think this case is more than justified to have it. And if you try the script to commit translations you will problably want to have git access to use it and not waste your time. Can you provide this features in DL today? API seems not be able to do that, so sorry for disagreeing again with you but currently DL is not usable for us to cover our needs.
