If you worry about something not fitting within 11, there is no guarantee that 15 is enough. Wouldn't it be saner to make that _("%-11s %8d %s\n") localizable, too? Alternatively, if (debug) { static int label_width = -1; if (label_width < 0) { int i; for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(prio_names); i++) ... do a one-time width measurement ... to set label_width } fprintf(stderr, "%-.*s %8d %s\n", label_width, _(prio_names[t->name->prio]), ...); ... or something like that, perhaps? > Signed-off-by: Michael J Gruber <git@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > --- > Ralf: this is just the context for the following l10-de patch > > builtin/describe.c | 6 +++--- > 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/builtin/describe.c b/builtin/describe.c > index 76c18059bf..1a760c16f9 100644 > --- a/builtin/describe.c > +++ b/builtin/describe.c > @@ -49,7 +49,7 @@ struct commit_name { > }; > > static const char *prio_names[] = { > - "head", "lightweight", "annotated", > + N_("head"), N_("lightweight"), N_("annotated"), > }; > > static int commit_name_cmp(const struct commit_name *cn1, > @@ -396,8 +396,8 @@ static void describe(const char *arg, int last_one) > if (debug) { > for (cur_match = 0; cur_match < match_cnt; cur_match++) { > struct possible_tag *t = &all_matches[cur_match]; > - fprintf(stderr, " %-11s %8d %s\n", > - prio_names[t->name->prio], > + fprintf(stderr, " %-15s %8d %s\n", > + _(prio_names[t->name->prio]), > t->depth, t->name->path); > } > fprintf(stderr, _("traversed %lu commits\n"), seen_commits);
