Here came some surprise. With diff, I could see, that many
lines were<br>
changed, even there was no semantic change. This was caused
by poedit<br>
from automatic line break. It breaks lines after 83 chars,
regardless if<br>
I e.g. set it to 70 (with "keep format of existing files"),
the default<br>
was 79.<br>
So I like to suggest, to first "reformat" the de.po file for
a stable<br>
format, make a merge request and after do the semantic
changes, so<br>
reviewers would have less work.<br>

Great!<br>
I personally would prefer NO line breaks, as comparing the diffs
after
<br>
would be much easier (otherwise a little change at the beginning of
a
<br>
long text changes all line breaks for several following lines, which<br>
makes it error-prone to observe changes at the end of the long text)
<p>If you disagree and want automatic line breaks, which width do
you want?</p>
