The issue is caused by the lazy commit feature of Weblate. This feature tries
to reduce the amount of commits by merging several fixes together in one
commit. The downside of this feature is, that Weblate sometimes waits 24h
hours before committing the last state of one file to the repository. I havn't
fully understood the algorithm, when Weblate decides to push directly and when
it waits 24h.

The checks are executed on Jenkins and triggered by any change in the master
branch, that males it possible to check also fixes that were done by Git
directly.
If someone starts implementing those rules in Weblate, than this should help
committing broken stuff in first place. If anyone has a good ruleset from
Weblate, create an issue, so we can can implement them.

>From the Weblate Administrators point of view we first need to upgrade Weblate

2.20 to 3.9.1 before we try to improve things. Because there may be bugs fixed
in meanwhile. The upgrade is scheduled at 10-12. Dec.
