Re: A better translation version of Chinese forpsql/po/zh_CN.po file

the zh_CN.po is different with the TW version.

I think, Álvaro is right. Please download the current po files from  https://babel.postgresql.org/ and make the change, then submit the patch.

Hi,

Please have a look at this website: https://babel.postgresql.org/
In there, you will find a lot of information about the current status of
the translation of all the various branches for the language, as well as
a git repository that you can clone.  The repository contains branches
for each active Postgres branch.

The methodology I recommend you follow is to download a .po file from
the website, then use it as a base to apply your new translations.

I just pushed your translation to the master branch (which is for
Postgres 9.5) -- to do so, I downloaded
https://babel.postgresql.org/po-current/psql-zh_CN.po (linked in the
website) then ran "msgmerge your-file.po psql-zh_CN.po", then committed
that as the new version of psql/zh_CN.po.

Hmm, ouch.  After pushing, I found out that during 2014, our established
translator Xiong He was still active:
http://pgfoundry.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=320&aid=1011462&group_id=1000064
Did you try contacting him before updating the translation?  What is the
reason for this alleged divergence?  I don't see Xiong He updating the
TW translation (which has stalled since 2011) so I have trouble
understanding exactly why you are calling our existing translation "the
TW version".
