Change the "pot" target so that the xgettext(1) invocation no longer include test files from t/t0200. These should only be included in the Icelandic is.po file since Git's own test suite uses them for regression tests, but nobody else should translate them. Previously I indicated this with a TRANSLATORS comment for all the strings: #. TRANSLATORS: This is a test. You don't need to translate it. #, c-format msgid "TEST: A C test string %s" msgstr "" But if translators follow those instructions they'll never have 100% translation coverage. It's much better to add a hidden option so that is.po now has to use a special git.pot file for msgmerge(1): make pot XGETTEXT_INCLUDE_TESTS=YesPlease But everything else can continue to use the documented: make pot Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@xxxxxxxxx> --- On Mon, Sep 13, 2010 at 07:15, Peter Krefting <peter@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason: >> * You're translating the TEST: messages, it's redundant except for >> Icelandic (which uses it for git.git tests), but I can see how it >> can be painful to have non-100% translation coverage. > > I just copied them verbatim, I didn't actually translate them.

I'll submit this as part of an updated ab/i18n series.
