scripts/i18n: introduce --merge-pot-file to control normalization

There are actually *two* kinds of normalization:

- in main branches, where we just want the translations - not any trivially
derived information or temporary or unstructured data.
- in i18n branches, where we want the trivially derived information, and also
want to preserve any other information there might be in the .po files.

If no pot file is specifed, do it as on the main branches and strip everything
but actual translations. This mode will primarily be used when grafting or
rebasing changes from i18n branches.

When a pot file is specified, run GNU msgmerge with it on the po files. The pot
file should ideally be fully updated (as done by extract_messages). That will
establish a common baseline, leaving only the essential changes as needing merge.

If merging from default branches to 18n, it is better to skip .po and .pot in
first 'hg merge' pass, while resolving everything else. Then, with the
uncommitted merge, run 'extract_messages', and then merge the .po files using
--merge-pot-file kallithea/i18n/kallithea.pot .

(Actually, these two different modes could perhaps be auto detected ...)

.. _troubleshooting:

===============
Troubleshooting
===============

:Q: **Missing static files?**
:A: Make sure either to set the ``static_files = true`` in the .ini file or
   double check the root path for your http setup. It should point to
   for example:
   ``/home/my-virtual-python/lib/python3.7/site-packages/kallithea/public``

|

:Q: **Can't install celery/rabbitmq?**
:A: Don't worry. Kallithea works without them, too. No extra setup is required.
    Try out the great Celery docs for further help.

|

:Q: **Long lasting push timeouts?**
:A: Make sure you set a longer timeout in your proxy/fcgi settings. Timeouts
    are caused by the http server and not Kallithea.

|

:Q: **Large pushes timeouts?**
:A: Make sure you set a proper ``max_body_size`` for the http server. Very often
    Apache, Nginx, or other http servers kill the connection due to to large
    body.

|

:Q: **Apache doesn't pass basicAuth on pull/push?**
:A: Make sure you added ``WSGIPassAuthorization true``.

|

:Q: **Git fails on push/pull?**
:A: Make sure you're using a WSGI http server that can handle chunked encoding
    such as ``waitress`` or ``gunicorn``.

|

:Q: **How can I use hooks in Kallithea?**
:A: It's easy if they are Python hooks: just use advanced link in
    hooks section in Admin panel, that works only for Mercurial. If
    you want to use Git hooks, just install th proper one in the repository,
    e.g., create a file `/gitrepo/hooks/pre-receive`. You can also use
    Kallithea-extensions to connect to callback hooks, for both Git
    and Mercurial.

|

:Q: **Kallithea is slow for me, how can I make it faster?**
:A: See the :ref:`performance` section.

|

:Q: **UnicodeDecodeError on Apache mod_wsgi**
:A: Please read: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/deployment/wsgi/modwsgi/#if-you-get-a-unicodeencodeerror.

|

:Q: **Requests hanging on Windows**
:A: Please try out with disabled Antivirus software, there are some known problems with Eset Antivirus. Make sure
    you have installed the latest Windows patches (especially KB2789397).
