[WG: I18N & L10N] Committing translation that is many files

[Kirschner, Beth]

Neal - you can commit all the i18n files in one command:

svn commit dir-1 dir-2 dir-3 etc -m 'SAK-26266 Hindi translation'

But before you can do this, you'll need to make sure to run 'svn add …' for any new files (likely all of them), as well as updating the default supported languages, compile and run some simple sanity tests. I usually do this with some simple shell scripts. I can help with this if you'd like - just let me know.

- Beth
