Without voicing an opinion about *whether* we should keep .pot in
version control...

I think that *if* we do so, then we should do step #2 directly, without
#1 first, for two reasons:

a. If we do #1 and not #2, we will probably end up with an outdated .pot
in HEAD. (And possibly in 1.10.0.tar.gz) Humans simply aren't as good
at running cron jobs as crond is ;-).

b. Doing #2 directly is very low overhead.
