I do not think you would want to catch them with $ git bisect novo <rev> $ git bisect velho <rev> unless the user has done $ git bisect --term-old=velho --term-new=novo previously. And that "custom bisect terms" case is covered by the last "else" clause in this if/elseif cascade (outside the context we can see in your message). The only thing you need to do around here is to mark the string as translatable. I do not think we need "enum term", or term_names[]. > @@ -747,7 +756,7 @@ static void handle_bad_merge_base(void) > fprintf(stderr, _("Some %s revs are not ancestor of the %s rev.\n" > "git bisect cannot work properly in this case.\n" > "Maybe you mistook %s and %s revs?\n"), > - term_good, term_bad, term_good, term_bad); > + _(term_good), _(term_bad), _(term_good), _(term_bad)); Likewise for all _(term_good), _(term_bad) and use of term_names[] we see in this patch. -- 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
