[PATCH] refs: mark invalid refname message for translation

From
Karthik Nayak <karthik.188@gmail.com>
Date

Message-ID
<20241220125837.2774153-1-karthik.188@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<xmqq4j2zifmy.fsf@gitster.g>

The error message produced by `transaction_refname_valid()` changes based on whether the update is a ref update or a reflog update, with the use of a ternary operator. This breaks translation since the sub-msg is not marked for translation. Fix this by setting the entire message using a `if {} else {}` block and marking each message for translation.

Since the reflog migration topic has been merged to 'next', I am sending this as an individual patch which applies on top of 'kn/reflog-migration'.

Junio, I'd also be happy to re-roll the series if that is better.
