                    @itskryode Each one made the translation of the language that has knowledge. You can translate to the language you know. I translated to Portuguese and Spanish.

                    Already complete (Portuguese (Brazilian), Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese and Catalan). Tks :)

                          Me again. I tried to fork a German lang file, but seem to have created a commit/proposal in the original repo instead. Could someone please give me a push in the right direction? See here:

                            Okay, my first version is ready in my own repo. How do I make a pull request from it into @Flyinghead's repo?

                              @Clyde I just did it for you but it's very simple: go to Pull Requests, New Pull request, select your repository (master branch) as head repository, select my repository (master branch) as base repository and Create.

                                @Clyde Nice! Thank you! The more translations we have, the more the RetroPie team will see people is interested in having a localized version of EmulationStation :)

                                  @Flyinghead Thank you very much! I got very confused with the Github naming scheme: pull request, head repo, base repo, master branch … you just can't guess what they mean, you'll have to know it.

                                  I'll add your post to my bookmark archive for future reference.

                                  @hiulit Thanks, it's the first version, though, which I hacked together in one 2-hour session, and I already found some errors in it. I'll revise it as soon as I can. I'd also appreciate it if some German speakers would look over it.

                                      I discovered a new improvement, is possible add icons to the text translate.
                                      But I don't know what icons are really valid.

                                      For example:
                                      IMG_20190228_114734_450.jpg

                                        @darknior I'm currently traveling so I won't be able to update from master until a week or so.
