parentgit-sh-i18n: restructure the logic to compute gettext.sh scheme (diff)
downloadtgif-ad17ea734770126bfe1027a8a999e9e2d9f62145.tar.xz
add a Makefile switch to avoid gettext translation in shell scripts
Some systems have gettext.sh (GNU gettext) installed, but it is either broken or misconfigured in such a way so its output is not usable. In case the users of these systems are unable or not interested in fixing them, setting the new Makefile switch should help: make USE_GETTEXT_SCHEME=fallthrough This will replace the translation routines with fallthrough versions, that does not use gettext from the platform.
