+## Initializing a new project on Transifex
+
+<pre>
+tx init
+tx set --auto-local -r hexchat.main "po\<lang>.po" --source-lang en --source-file po\hexchat.pot --execute
+</pre>
+
+Append `type = PO` to _.tx\config_.
+
+Push the resources to Transifex:
+
+<pre>
+tx push --source --translation
+</pre>
+
+
+## Updating online translations with the template
+
+Regenerate the source file (_hexchat.pot_) on a Unix machine:
+
+<pre>
+rm po/hexchat.pot && ./autogen.sh && ./configure --enable-nls && make
+</pre>
+
+Push the updated source file to Transifex (this automatically updates all translation files):
+
+<pre>
+tx push --source
+</pre>
+
+
+## Updating the repo with online translations
+
+Update local copy with Transifex updates:
+
+<pre>
+tx pull
+</pre>
+
+Update GitHub repo:
+
+<pre>git add po/
+git commit
+git push
+</pre>
+
+
+## Updating just one translation with local changes
+
+<pre>
+tx push --translation --language xy
+</pre>
+
+Where _xy_ is the language code.
+
+
+## Forcing translation updates
+
+<pre>
+tx pull --force
+</pre>
+
+This might be required when the repo is freshly cloned and thus timestamps are newer than on Transifex.
