PO helper
---------
To make the maintenance of XX.po easier, the l10n coordinator and l10n
team leaders can use a helper program named "git-po-helper". It is a
wrapper to gettext suite, specifically written for the purpose of Git
l10n workflow.
To build and install the helper program from source, see
[git-po-helper/README][].
Usage for git-po-helper:
- To start a new language translation:
git-po-helper init XX.po
- To update your XX.po file:
git-po-helper update XX.po
- To check commit log and syntax of XX.po:
git-po-helper check-po XX.po
git-po-helper check-commits
Run "git-po-helper" without arguments to show usage.
