Hi translators,

When gettext finds obsolete strings in your po file, those are commented out
started with #~.
Meanwhile, Tx seems to remove such strings like follows:

Updating branch refs/heads/master
         to 261e8617acb9f79469110e053f9b431584b71d72 (commit)
       from ae816e5272bed86e660d983e80f9e87ddf865ed0 (commit)

IMHO, we should not keep any additional information for translators
in each po file.
