Talking about translation merge back to master, IMO it should be avoided,
at least we should be careful.
In my experience, merging in Zanata sometimes leads to some confusion.
If we use a merge in Zanata, a target branch of a merge should be
marked read-only.
Otherwise, some works in the target branch will be lost.
