Besides, as it was already said, this is an API.

I pretty much only looked at that one file and it
didn't look at quick glance like an API was being
used to internationalize git.

If the goal if the i18n effort is also to produce grammatically
correct output in all the supported languages then the
tests that my patch would break would have to be rewritten
anyway.

That's not it.

We can discuss the correct way to implement a change like this
but the fact remains that whatever the implementation, the issue
that Junio raised will remain. That is, what to do about all
the places that presume the old incorrect output.

This problem isn't specific to git. I can easily imagine
other open source projects that face, or will face, this
problem.
