This applies the same improvements previously done in libvirt: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2018-April/msg01004.html https://www.berrange.com/posts/2018/11/29/improved-translation-po-file-handling-by-ditching-gettext-autotools-integration/ The key problems with our current approach are: - The pot & po files stored in GIT contain huge set of annotations about source file names & line numbers. These are out of date as soon as a change is commited to git following a translation refresh. This makes diffs impossible to meaningfully review, as they are 98% noise, 2% signal. - The po file messages are sorted by source location, so when we move code between files, or rename files, the po file message order changes for no good reason. This makes diffs even more impossible to review. - The po files contain entries for all messages even if most have no translation, bloating size of po/ data stored in git - Whenever 'make dist' is run, it alters all the pot and po files, so developers need to then reset their content to match git HEAD manually. This is caused by having auto-generated content (source file locations) mixed in with the static content (the actual translated strings) After this series, we only minimized po files in git, with the redundated & outdated source locations info stripped. This stripped info is re-added automatically during build to create the real .po files, that we distribute, and/or upload to translators in Zanata. As a result the po directory is smaller in size, and when refreshing from Zanata, we have git commits that clearly show *only* the altered translations, nothing else. The importance of this cannot be overstated - by having these clear diffs when doing this change in libvirt, I discovered a serious bug in the Zanata client that has been screwing up translations in every project that uses Zanata by adding bogus "fuzzy" annotations. The particularly attractive statistic: 193 files changed, 11904 insertions(+), 80334 deletions(-) Daniel P.
