I use the git mirror at Github for bisecting, it works almost
instaneously.
I do not understand the purpose of this daily update,
does it serves any
specific purpose? I do not feel like we require up-to-date translations
in trunk.
In theory, it is possible to push l18n updates to live site using
Ext:LocalisationUpdate, but I'm not sure if it is practiced these2
days due to huge lag between trunk and WMF cluster.
I have a similar issue with not so much edited
extensions for which the
log is mostly i18n translations thus hiding the real code commits.
Then CR should be fixed to allow more flexible filtering, not
development process be pushed 5 years back.
