GIT-SH-I18N(1)                   Git Manual                   GIT-SH-I18N(1)

NAME         top

       git-sh-i18n - Git's i18n setup code for shell scripts

SYNOPSIS         top

       . "$(git --exec-path)/git-sh-i18n"

DESCRIPTION         top

       This is not a command the end user would want to run. Ever. This
       documentation is meant for people who are studying the Porcelain-ish
       scripts and/or are writing new ones.

       The 'git sh-i18n scriptlet is designed to be sourced (using .) by
       Git’s porcelain programs implemented in shell script. It provides
       wrappers for the GNU gettext and eval_gettext functions accessible
       through the gettext.sh script, and provides pass-through fallbacks on
       systems without GNU gettext.

FUNCTIONS         top

       gettext
           Currently a dummy fall-through function implemented as a wrapper
           around printf(1). Will be replaced by a real gettext
           implementation in a later version.

       eval_gettext
           Currently a dummy fall-through function implemented as a wrapper
           around printf(1) with variables expanded by the
           git-sh-i18n--envsubst(1) helper. Will be replaced by a real
           gettext implementation in a later version.
