This time there are 2 updated messages need to be translated since last update. Let's start new round of translation for Git 2.15.0. You can get it from the usual place: https://github.com/git-l10n/git-po/ As how to update your XX.po and help to translate Git, please see "Updating a XX.po file" and other sections in “po/README" file. -- Jiang Xin ``` ## Junio C Hamano, 2017-10-17 06:53 Subject: Re: [L10N] Kickoff of translation for Git 2.15.0 round 2 Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/xmqqr2u2nu37.fsf%40gitster.mtv.corp.google.com In-Reply-To: ``` Jiang Xin writes: > Git v2.15.0-rc1 released with a typo fix from commit dfab1eac23 > ("i18n: add a missing space in message", Sun Oct 8 14:18:39 2017 +0200). > This time there are 2 updated messages need to be translated since last > update. Let's start new round of translation for Git 2.15.0. Today's pushout included 3247edbb ("sequencer.c: fix and unify error messages in rearrange_squash()", 2017-10-15), which unfortunately added this to the mix: error_errno(_("could not write '%s'"), todo_file); There is another one "could not truncate '%s'" added by the same commit, but the codebase already had another instance of the same string, so it won't cause trouble. Regarding the "could not write" thing, there are quite a few instances of "coulld not write to '%s'" with %s set to the filename, and I strongly suspect that this new one should be further updated to match them (Ralf promoted from Cc: to To: for this). That would have a nice side effect of making today's last-minute merges a non-event from translators' point of view ;-) ``` ## Ralf Thielow, 2017-10-17 07:30 Subject: Re: [L10N] Kickoff of translation for Git 2.15.0 round 2 Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/CAN0XMOKFsHhCSbsWKGg3a84euqkfHA%2B0dt%3DsnTejqcMQYnAK_A%40mail.gmail.com In-Reply-To: ``` 2017-10-17 8:53 GMT+02:00 Junio C Hamano : > Jiang Xin writes: > >> Git v2.15.0-rc1 released with a typo fix from commit dfab1eac23 >> ("i18n: add a missing space in message", Sun Oct 8 14:18:39 2017 +0200). >> This time there are 2 updated messages need to be translated since last >> update.

I'll send a patch later to update the message to match the other instances. ```
