But xgettext collects output and then writes it all in one swoop, so it's hard to provoke problems that way in practice. The possibility that had me worried is what hat happens when we start translating shell scripts: xgettext -o$@ $(XGETTEXT_FLAGS_C) $(LOCALIZED_C) xgettext -o$@ --add-missing $(XGETTEXT_FLAGS_SH) $(LOCALIZED_SH) xgettext -o$@ --add-missing $(XGETTEXT_FLAGS_PERL) $(LOCALIZED_PERL) If the build is interrupted partway through, the output from the commands that succeeded will remain and leave out the messages that would have been added later out of the template. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
