Unless you are also a git developer, I doubt if sha1_file.c makes sense to any translators. In my 8 years of being translator/programmer to open source world, I rarely look at those lines (though I admit I do). A slightly modified suggestion is just drop line number, not the file name, but xgettext does not support that, unfortunately. -- Duy -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
