Junio C Hamano	ac06116d44	i18n: fix auto detection of gettext scheme for shell scripts A new code added by `ad17ea7` (add a Makefile switch to avoid gettext translation in shell scripts, 2012-01-23) tried to optionally force a gettext scheme to "fallthrough", but ended up forcing it to everybody.

Alex Riesen	ad17ea7347	add a Makefile switch to avoid gettext translation in shell scripts Some systems have gettext.sh (GNU gettext) installed, but it is either broken or misconfigured in such a way so its output is not usable. In case the users of these systems are unable or not interested in fixing them, setting the new Makefile switch should help: make USE_GETTEXT_SCHEME=fallthrough This will replace the translation routines with fallthrough versions, that does not use gettext from the platform.

Junio C Hamano	42f16113ee	git-sh-i18n: restructure the logic to compute gettext.sh scheme Instead of having a single long and complex chain of commands to decide what to do and carry out the decision, split the code so that we first decide which scheme to use, and in the second section define what exactly is done by the chosen scheme. It makes the code much easier to follow and update. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	13 years ago
Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason	5e9637c629	i18n: add infrastructure for translating Git with gettext Change the skeleton implementation of i18n in Git to one that can show localized strings to users for our C, Shell and Perl programs using either GNU libintl or the Solaris gettext implementation. This new internationalization support is enabled by default. If gettext isn't available, or if Git is compiled with NO_GETTEXT=YesPlease, Git falls back on its current behavior of showing interface messages in English. When using the autoconf script we'll auto-detect if the gettext libraries are installed and act appropriately. This change is somewhat large because as well as adding a C, Shell and Perl i18n interface we're adding a lot of tests for them, and for those tests to work we need a skeleton PO file to actually test translations. A minimal Icelandic translation is included for this purpose. Icelandic includes multi-byte characters which makes it easy to test various edge cases, and it's a language I happen to understand. The rest of the commit message goes into detail about various sub-parts of this commit. = Installation Gettext .mo files will be installed and looked for in the standard $(prefix)/share/locale path. GIT_TEXTDOMAINDIR can also be set to override that, but that's only intended to be used to test Git itself. = Perl Perl code that's to be localized should use the new Git::I18n module. It imports a __ function into the caller's package by default. Instead of using the high level Locale::TextDomain interface I've opted to use the low-level (equivalent to the C interface) Locale::Messages module, which Locale::TextDomain itself uses. Locale::TextDomain does a lot of redundant work we don't need, and some of it would potentially introduce bugs. It tries to set the $TEXTDOMAIN based on package of the caller, and has its own hardcoded paths where it'll search for messages. I found it easier just to completely avoid it rather than try to circumvent its behavior. In any case, this is an issue wholly internal Git::I18N. Its guts can be changed later if that's deemed necessary. See <AANLkTilYD_NyIZMyj9dHtVk-ylVBfvyxpCC7982LWnVd@mail.gmail.com> for a further elaboration on this topic. = Shell Shell code that's to be localized should use the git-sh-i18n library. It's basically just a wrapper for the system's gettext.sh. If gettext.sh isn't available we'll fall back on gettext(1) if it's available. The latter is available without the former on Solaris, which has its own non-GNU gettext implementation. We also need to emulate eval_gettext() there. If neither are present we'll use a dumb printf(1) fall-through wrapper. = About libcharset.h and langinfo.h We use libcharset to query the character set of the current locale if it's available. I.e. we'll use it instead of nl_langinfo if HAVE_LIBCHARSET_H is set. The GNU gettext manual recommends using langinfo.h's nl_langinfo(CODESET) to acquire the current character set, but on systems that have libcharset.h's locale_charset() using the latter is either saner, or the only option on those systems. GNU and Solaris have a nl_langinfo(CODESET), FreeBSD can use either, but MinGW and some others need to use libcharset.h's locale_charset() instead. =Credits This patch is based on work by Jeff Epler <jepler@unpythonic.net> who did the initial Makefile / C work, and a lot of comments from the Git mailing list, including Jonathan Nieder, Jakub Narebski, Johannes Sixt, Erik Faye-Lund, Peter Krefting, Junio C Hamano, Thomas Rast and others.

Jon Seymour	3da5c54340	gettext: add gettextln, eval_gettextln to encode common idiom Currently, if you want to use gettext or eval_gettext to format a message you may have to add a separate echo statement and a surrounding subshell in order to interpolate the required trailing new line. This patch introduces two new helper functions, gettextln and eval_gettextln which append a trailing newline to the gettext output. This allows constructions of the form: if test -s "$GIT_DIR/BISECT_START" then ( gettext "You need to give me at least one good and one bad revisions. (You can use \"git bisect bad\" and \"git bisect good\" for that.)" && echo ) >&2 else ... to be expressed more concisely as: if test -s "$GIT_DIR/BISECT_START" then gettextln "You need to give me at least one good and one bad revisions. (You can use \"git bisect bad\" and \"git bisect good\" for that.)" >&2 else ...
