If the opinion of the devs in IRC has changed, I will switch to
another repository to avoid unnecessary bloat to the commit log.

Well, it isn’t especially problematic at this point, I was just thinking
how it would affect the trunk log in the long term, but I suppose it’s
no big deal. Your points makes good sense, and as long it’s okay for the
main developers, it should be fine.
Anyhow, good luck with your translation work, it’s nice to see the
svnbook evolve into lots of languages.

Ok. To clarify this:
1. Log filtering is easy.
2. Defeats the point of us having write access, if we cannot commit
work in the unit size we feel comfortable with.
3. Psychology, if I don't do commits every day I loose interest in
about one or two weeks and leave the project orphan. I've seen
this both in me and everybody else I've worked with in free
software projects. This goes double for translation work: most
"new" translators discover after two weeks that its not that
cool that they volunteered and wish they didn't.
Sorry for not having cared to explain this.
