Thank you for notifying me.
I would like to update Weblate, but I don't know how I should handle
the current situation.
Let me explain.
Debian-edu-doc on salsa and debian-edu-doc on weblate have diverged
which leads to merge conflicts.
In the past I handled such a situation as follows:

1.
- on my PC, msmerge the weblate translation updates with the current
pot-files from salsa and commit the results to salsa. That, I did
yesterday. Thus, at this moment the git repo on salsa has up to date
translations for all languages, both the ones that are maintained at
weblate and the ones that are directly maintained at salsa (except for
debian-edu-buster-manual.hr.po, translated at 0,5%, and debian-edu-
buster-manual.pt_PT.po, translated at 0,6%).

2.
- at Weblate, execute a "reset of all changes in the local repository".

3.
- at weblate, pull in all changes from salsa.

That way the merge conflict was easily resolved without any loss of
content.

But if I would do a reset at Weblate now, I'm afraid that debian-edu-
buster-manual.hr.po and debian-edu-buster-manual.pt_PT.po would get
lost.

I have no clue on how to handle this.
Suggestions are very welcome.
