  Well, 150 MB is quite (and for me surprisingly) small, so that shouldn't be much of \
a problem for the translators. But a giant Git repository with **all** the languages \
will be. So please consider using submodules, one for each language.  
  BTW, LibreOffice uses a ‘giant Git repository' for their (read-only version of \
the) translations. And it's painfully slow to run `git pull` on it, especially on a \
non-SDD disk on older hardware. Try it yourself: `git clone \
https://github.com/LibreOffice/translations.git`
