gettext.h is responsible for defining the _ and Q_ helpers which are
either simple stubs (in the NO_GETTEXT case) or synonyms for the
libintl functions used to translated git output. As an implementation
artifact, ever since the !NO_GETTEXT case was implemented
(v1.7.9-rc0~42^2, 2011-11-18), they have also defined gettext and
ngettext macros in the NO_GETTEXT case:
#ifdef gettext
# undef gettext
#endif
#define gettext(x) (x)
New readers looking at this header might be tempted to use gettext and
ngettext directly, since they are defined in all cases, instead of
using the _ and Q_ wrappers which look like shortcuts.
However gettext and ngettext bypass the GETTEXT_POISON feature. So
any code using them directly will produce perfectly sensible English
output when run in the test suite with GETTEXT_POISON set, instead of
the poison markers that normally would make it easy to catch output
intended for machines that has been marked for translation by mistake.
Avoid the temptation by _not_ providing fallback definitions for
gettext and ngettext ourselves. This way, the header is less
misleading and code that uses gettext et al directly will fail to
compile when NO_GETTEXT is set so we can catch it early.
We also take the opportunity to avoid a little ifdef-ery by splitting
the NO_GETTEXT and !NO_GETTEXT implementations into different headers.
Unfortunately this involves some duplication of code.

Here's a rough patch to make that kind of thing easier to catch. It
might make more sense to do
#ifdef NO_GETTEXT
#define git_gettext_(x) (x)
#define git_ngettext_(msgid, plu, n) ...
#else
#define git_gettext_(x) gettext(x)
#define git_ngettext_(msgid, plu, n) ngettext(msgid, plu, n)
#endif
static inline const char *_(const char *msgid)
{
return poisoning() ? "poison!" : git_gettext_(msgid);
}
...
but I didn't think of it until I had already written this patch.
Anyway, this way you get both approaches for easy comparison. ;-)
