Do we need to manual notify and create a "component" whenever a new file
is available for translation in our repo? Because if Weblate can't do
that automatically then this doesn't really "pull automatically from our
main Git repo". Well, somehow, but that's suboptimal...

And then, how are those "components" displayed to the user? Are their
organized automatically according to the structure of our file system?
Do you have screenshots of how to whole structure of the Git repo is
displayed to the user?

As a core developer with commit bit, do I really have to go through the
web interface to download the latest translations? If so, then this
doesn't match the requirement stated as "so that core developers only
have to fetch reviewed translations from there".

So I have to manually activate a component, but then it's pulled
automatically?
