NAME

Git::I18N - Perl interface to Git's Gettext localizations

SYNOPSIS

use Git::I18N;

print __("Welcome to Git!\n");

printf __("The following error occurred: %s\n"), $error;

printf __n("committed %d file\n", "committed %d files\n", $files), $files;

DESCRIPTION

Git's internal Perl interface to gettext via Locale::Messages. If Locale::Messages can't be loaded (it's not a core module) we provide stub passthrough fallbacks.

This is a distilled interface to gettext, see info '(gettext)Perl' for the full interface. This module implements only a small part of it.

FUNCTIONS

__($)

Locale::Messages's gettext function if all goes well, otherwise our passthrough fallback function.

__n($$$)

Locale::Messages's ngettext function or passthrough fallback function.

N__($)

No-operation that only returns its argument. Use this if you want xgettext to extract the text to the pot template but do not want to trigger retrival of the translation at run time.
