Guide - How to translate and save files on Github

This Guide will show you how to translate and save files on Github.

First of all, if you are the first translator in your language you can follow >>this Guide<< to setup your translation files

First steps

• Create a Github account and verify your email adress
  
• Open our >>REPOSITORY<<
  
• Navigate into your localization-pack (for my example de)
  Inside your pack you'll find XML files. Open that one you want to translate
  
• Click on the pencil at the top
  
  
  
• Now you are in Edit-Mode. At this moment you can write into the files.
  

Editing the files

At this point you've found a file you want to translate and opened the edit mode. Please be aware! Only edit between

Code:

<Text></Text>

When you are editing a file for the first time, type your name in the Contributors section.
Now go on translate the English sentences in your language

For example:

Code:

<GameDBLocalizedString>      <LocID>OPTIONS_ALLOW_DEATH</LocID>            <Text>Death allowed</Text>  </GameDBLocalizedString>

Code:

<GameDBLocalizedString>      <LocID>OPTIONS_ALLOW_DEATH</LocID>            <Text>Tode erlaubt</Text>  </GameDBLocalizedString>

When you are done with your translation make sure you didn't damage the xml - that means you accidentally delete a <,> or /.A good help there is >>This XML validator<< just copy the whole file with ctrl + a and paste it in the validator.

When you think everything is okay, you need to propose the file change
Scroll down to the bottom, there you'll see this:


Click on Propose file change

Create a Pull request

To request your changes now in the master code, you'll need to create a pull request. Just click on the next site that showed

Now your're done with editing and saving the file - you made a request to us that you want to change your edited lines in your language-pack.

Tips:

If you get more translators from time to time please edit smaller sections and send more requests. That can help you to find any writing and syntax mistakes.

Learn something about Github, to make it easier for you.
