I hope I don't get whacked over the head with a wet noodle, but would it make sense to use subversion for general content (such as user created documentation) instead of git? a) keeps content away from git, b) is easier to use for educators?

not as authoritative as git but maybe it's ok with documentation since one can do a visual read? Then if pootle was connected to subversion, you could always have a border crossing where any strings going over the border are given git hashes and checksumsm
