Pot files are generated files, so there's always an extra step to create
them and keep them in sync.

I see the following options:
* Ensure that users update pot files. That will leads to many conflicts
and rebases, so is out.
* Have a job that writes to gerrit. We're not doing anything like that
in OpenStack by policy.
* Have a separate place that stores pot files.

We use with translate.o.o the third way and store the pot files directly
in translate.o.o. We could generate a special "pot-files repo" that is
used for syncing.

Pushing rst files to Weblate could work as well - but we also have repos
like tripleo-ui that use JSON and not rst,
