The preceding commits to make the "coccicheck" target incremental made
it slower in some cases. As an optimization let's not have the
many=many mapping of <*.cocci>=<*.[ch]>, but instead concat the
<*.cocci> into an ALL.cocci, and then run one-to-many
ALL.cocci=<*.[ch]>.
A "make coccicheck" is now around 2x as fast as it was on "master",
and around 1.5x as fast as the preceding change to make the run
incremental:
$ git hyperfine -L rev origin/master,HEAD~,HEAD -p 'make clean' 'make coccicheck SPATCH=spatch COCCI_SOURCES="$(echo $(ls o*.c builtin/h*.c))"' -r 3

'make coccicheck SPATCH=spatch COCCI_SOURCES="$(echo $(ls o*.c builtin/h*.c))"' in 'HEAD' ran
1.56 ± 0.04 times faster than 'make coccicheck SPATCH=spatch COCCI_SOURCES="$(echo $(ls o*.c builtin/h*.c))"' in 'origin/master'

This can be turned off with SPATCH_CONCAT_COCCI, but as the
beneficiaries of "SPATCH_CONCAT_COCCI=" would mainly be those
developing the *.cocci rules themselves, let's leave this optimization
on by default.
For more information see my "Optimizing *.cocci rules by concat'ing
them" (<220901.8635dbjfko.gmgdl@evledraar.gmail.com>) on the
cocci@inria.fr mailing list.
This potentially changes the results of our *.cocci rules, but as
noted in that discussion it should be safe for our use. We don't name
rules, or if we do their names don't conflict across our *.cocci
files.
To the extent that we'd have any inter-dependencies between rules this
doesn't make that worse, as we'd have them now if we ran "make
coccicheck", applied the results, and would then have (due to
hypothetical interdependencies) suggested changes on the subsequent
"make coccicheck".
Our "coccicheck-test" target makes use of the ALL.cocci when running
tests, e.g. when testing unused.{c,out} we test it against ALL.cocci,
not unused.cocci. We thus assert (to the extent that we have test
coverage) that this concatenation doesn't change the expected results
of running these rules.

Change the "coccinelle" rule so that we first copy the *.cocci source
in e.g. "contrib/coccinelle/strbuf.cocci" to
".build/contrib/coccinelle/strbuf.cocci" before operating on it.
For now this serves as a rather pointless indirection, but prepares us
for the subsequent commit where we'll be able to inject generated
*.cocci files. Having the entire dependency tree live inside .build/*
simplifies both the globbing we'd need to do, and any "clean" rules.
It will also help for future targets which will want to act on the
generated patches or the logs, e.g. targets to alert if we can't parse
certain files (or, less so than usual) with "spatch", and e.g. a
replacement for "ci/run-static-analysis.sh". Such a replacement won't
care about placing the patches in the in-tree, only whether they're
"OK" (and about the diff).

Improve the incremental rebuilding support of "coccicheck" by
piggy-backing on the computed dependency information of the
corresponding *.o file, rather than rebuilding all <RULE>/<FILE> pairs
if either their corresponding file changes, or if any header changes.
This in effect uses the same method that the "sparse" target was made
to use in c234e8a0ec (Makefile: make the "sparse" target non-.PHONY,
2021-09-23), except that the dependency on the *.o file isn't a hard
one, we check with $(wildcard) if the *.o file exists, and if so we'll
depend on it.
This means that the common case of:
make
make coccicheck
Will benefit from incremental rebuilding, now changing e.g. a header
will only re-run "spatch" on those those *.c files that make use of
it:
By depending on the *.o we piggy-back on
COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES. See c234e8a0ec (Makefile: make the
"sparse" target non-.PHONY, 2021-09-23) for prior art of doing that
for the *.sp files. E.g.:
make contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci.patch
make -W column.h contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci.patch
Will take around 15 seconds for the second command on my 8 core box if
I didn't run "make" beforehand to create the *.o files. But around 2
seconds if I did and we have those "*.o" files.
Notes about the approach of piggy-backing on *.o for dependencies:
* It *is* a trade-off since we'll pay the extra cost of running the C
compiler, but we're probably doing that anyway. The compiler is much
faster than "spatch", so even though we need to re-compile the *.o to
create the dependency info for the *.c for "spatch" it's
faster (especially if using "ccache").
* There *are* use-cases where some would like to have *.o files
around, but to have the "make coccicheck" ignore them. See:
https://lore.kernel.org/git/20220826104312.GJ1735@szeder.dev/
For those users a:
make
make coccicheck SPATCH_USE_O_DEPENDENCIES=
Will avoid considering the *.o files.
* If that *.o file doesn't exist we'll depend on an intermediate file
of ours which in turn depends on $(FOUND_H_SOURCES).
This covers both an initial build, or where "coccicheck" is run
without running "all" beforehand, and because we run "coccicheck"
on e.g. files in compat/* that we don't know how to build unless
the requisite flag was provided to the Makefile.
Most of the runtime of "incremental" runs is now spent on various
compat/* files, i.e. we conditionally add files to COMPAT_OBJS, and
therefore conflate whether we *can* compile an object and generate
dependency information for it with whether we'd like to link it
into our binary.
Before this change the distinction didn't matter, but now one way
to make this even faster on incremental builds would be to peel
those concerns apart so that we can see that e.g. compat/mmap.c
doesn't depend on column.h.

Optimize the very slow "coccicheck" target to take advantage of
incremental rebuilding, and fix outstanding dependency problems with
the existing rule.
The rule is now faster both on the initial run as we can make better
use of GNU make's parallelism than the old ad-hoc combination of
make's parallelism combined with $(SPATCH_BATCH_SIZE) and/or the
"--jobs" argument to "spatch(1)".
It also makes us *much* faster when incrementally building, it's now
viable to "make coccicheck" as topic branches are merged down.
The rule didn't use FORCE (or its equivalents) before, so a:
make coccicheck
make coccicheck
Would report nothing to do on the second iteration. But all of our
patch output depended on all $(COCCI_SOURCES) files, therefore e.g.:
make -W grep.c coccicheck
Would do a full re-run, i.e. a a change in a single file would force
us to do a full re-run.
The reason for this (not the initial rationale, but my analysis) is:
* Since we create a single "*.cocci.patch+" we don't know where to
pick up where we left off, or how to incrementally merge e.g. a
"grep.c" change with an existing *.cocci.patch.
* We've been carrying forward the dependency on the *.c files since
63f0a758a0 (add coccicheck make target, 2016-09-15) the rule was
initially added as a sort of poor man's dependency discovery.
As we don't include other *.c files depending on other *.c files
has always been broken, as could be trivially demonstrated
e.g. with:
make coccicheck
make -W strbuf.h coccicheck
However, depending on the corresponding *.c files has been doing
something, namely that *if* an API change modified both *.c and *.h
files we'd catch the change to the *.h we care about via the *.c
being changed.
For API changes that happened only via *.h files we'd do the wrong
thing before this change, but e.g. for function additions (not
"static inline" ones) catch the *.h change by proxy.
Now we'll instead:
* Create a <RULE>/<FILE> pair in the .build directory, E.g. for
swap.cocci and grep.c we'll create
.build/contrib/coccinelle/swap.cocci.patch/grep.c.
That file is the diff we'll apply for that <RULE>-<FILE>
combination, if there's no changes to me made (the common case)
it'll be an empty file.
* Our generated *.patch
file (e.g. contrib/coccinelle/swap.cocci.patch) is now a simple "cat
$^" of all of all of the <RULE>/<FILE> files for a given <RULE>.
In the case discussed above of "grep.c" being changed we'll do the
full "cat" every time, so they resulting *.cocci.patch will always
be correct and up-to-date, even if it's "incrementally updated".
See 1cc0425a27 (Makefile: have "make pot" not "reset --hard",
2022-05-26) for another recent rule that used that technique.
As before we'll:
* End up generating a contrib/coccinelle/swap.cocci.patch, if we
"fail" by creating a non-empty patch we'll still exit with a zero
exit code.
Arguably we should move to a more Makefile-native way of doing
this, i.e. fail early, and if we want all of the "failed" changes
we can use "make -k", but as the current
"ci/run-static-analysis.sh" expects us to behave this way let's
keep the existing behavior of exhaustively discovering all cocci
changes, and only failing if spatch itself errors out.
Further implementation details & notes:
* Before this change running "make coccicheck" would by default end
up pegging just one CPU at the very end for a while, usually as
we'd finish whichever *.cocci rule was the most expensive.
This could be mitigated by combining "make -jN" with
SPATCH_BATCH_SIZE, see 960154b9c1 (coccicheck: optionally batch
spatch invocations, 2019-05-06).
There will be cases where getting rid of "SPATCH_BATCH_SIZE" makes
things worse, but a from-scratch "make coccicheck" with the default
of SPATCH_BATCH_SIZE=1 (and tweaking it doesn't make a difference)
is faster (~3m36s v.s. ~3m56s) with this approach, as we can feed
the CPU more work in a less staggered way.
* Getting rid of "SPATCH_BATCH_SIZE" particularly helps in cases
where the default of 1 yields parallelism under "make coccicheck",
but then running e.g.:
make -W contrib/coccinelle/swap.cocci coccicheck
I.e. before that would use only one CPU core, until the user
remembered to adjust "SPATCH_BATCH_SIZE" differently than the
setting that makes sense when doing a non-incremental run of "make
coccicheck".
* Before the "make coccicheck" rule would have to clean
"contrib/coccinelle/*.cocci.patch*", since we'd create "*+" and
"*.log" files there. Now those are created in
.build/contrib/coccinelle/, which is covered by the "cocciclean" rule
already.
Outstanding issues & future work:
* We could get rid of "--all-includes" in favor of manually
specifying a list of includes to give to "spatch(1)".
As noted upthread of [1] a naïve removal of "--all-includes" will
result in broken *.cocci patches, but if we know the exhaustive
list of includes via COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES we don't need to
re-scan for them, we could grab the headers to include from the
.depend.d/<file>.o.d and supply them with the "--include" option to
spatch(1).q

Per the rationale in 7b63ea5750 (Makefile: remove mandatory "spatch"
arguments from SPATCH_FLAGS, 2022-07-05) we have certain flags that
are truly mandatory, such as "--sp-file" and "--patch .". The
"--all-includes" flag is also critical, but per [1] we might want to
ad-hoc tweak it occasionally for testing or one-offs.
But being unable to set e.g. SPATCH_FLAGS="--verbose-parsing" without
breaking how our "spatch" works isn't ideal, i.e. before this we'd
need to know about the default include flags, and specify:
SPATCH_FLAGS="--all-includes --verbose-parsing".
If we were then to change the default include flag (e.g. to
"--recursive-includes") in the future any such one-off commands would
need to be correspondingly updated.
Let's instead leave the SPATCH_FLAGS for the user, while creating a
new SPATCH_INCLUDE_FLAGS to allow for ad-hoc testing of the include
strategy itself.

$ make contrib/coccinelle/xcalloc.cocci.patch COCCI_SOURCES=promisor-remote.c SPATCH_FLAGS="--all-includes --recursive-includes"

We'd like to be able to make some of our pipes nonblocking so that

introduce a compat wrapper so this can be abstracted for each platform.
The interface is as narrow as possible to let platforms do what's
natural there (rather than having to implement fcntl() and a fake
O_NONBLOCK for example, or having to handle other types of descriptors).
The next commit will add Windows support, at which point we should be
covering all platforms in practice. But if we do find some other
platform without O_NONBLOCK, we'll return ENOSYS. Arguably we could just
trigger a build-time #error in this case, which would catch the problem
earlier. But since we're not planning to use this compat wrapper in many
code paths, a seldom-seen runtime error may be friendlier for such a
platform than blocking compilation completely. Our test suite would
still notice it.

Maybe, but autoflush is not explicitly enabled. I will
enable it again (I disabled it because of Eric's comment
but I re-read the comment and he is only talking about
pipes).
Anyways, this behavior is not really needed for the tests and the
flush() calls make the code slightly larger, so let's avoid them
altogether in the new C version.

While this patch appears large, it is mostly made up of moving code out of
'scalar.c' and into 'diagnose.c'. Specifically, the functions
- dir_file_stats_objects()
- dir_file_stats()
- count_files()
- loose_objs_stats()
- add_directory_to_archiver()
are all copied verbatim from 'scalar.c'. The 'create_diagnostics_archive()'
function is a mostly identical (partial) copy of 'cmd_diagnose()', with the
primary changes being that 'zip_path' is an input and "Enlistment root" is
corrected to "Repository root" in the archiver log.

The "Guides" section was added in f442f28a81 (git.txt: add list of

But placing e.g. "gitignore(5)" in it is stretching the meaning of
what a "guide" is, ideally that section should list things similar to
"giteveryday(7)" and "gitcore-tutorial(7)".
An alternate name that was considered for this new section was "User
formats", for consistency with the nomenclature used for man section 5
in general. My man(1) lists it as "File formats and conventions,
e.g. /etc/passwd".
So calling this "git help --formats" or "git help --user-formats"
would make sense for e.g. gitignore(5), but would be stretching it
somewhat for githooks(5), and would seem really suspect for the likes
of gitcli(7).

For SHA-256, we currently have support for OpenSSL and libgcrypt because
these two libraries contain optimized implementations that can take
advantage of native processor instructions. However, OpenSSL is not
suitable for linking against for Linux distros due to licensing
incompatibilities with the GPLv2, and libgcrypt has been less favored by
cryptographers due to some security-related implementation issues,
which, while not affecting our use of hash algorithms, has affected its
reputation.
Let's add another option that's compatible with the GPLv2, which is
Nettle. This is an option which is generally better than libgcrypt
because on many distros GnuTLS (which uses Nettle) is used for HTTPS and
therefore as a practical matter it will be available on most systems.
As a result, prefer it over libgcrypt and our built-in implementation.
Nettle also has recently gained support for Intel's SHA-NI instructions,
which compare very favorably to other implementations, as well as
assembly implementations for when SHA-NI is not available.
A git gc on git.git sees a 12% performance improvement with Nettle over
our block SHA-256 implementation due to general assembly improvements.
With SHA-NI, the performance of raw SHA-256 on a 2 GiB file goes from

Have the newly introduced "coccicheck-test" target run implicitly when
"coccicheck" itself is run. As with e.g. the "check-chainlint"
target (see [1]) it makes sense to run this unconditionally before we
run other "spatch" rules as a basic sanity check. See

Add a "coccicheck-test" target to test our *.cocci rules, and as a
demonstration add tests for the rules added in 39ea59a257 (remove
unnecessary NULL check before free(3), 2016-10-08) and
1b83d1251e (coccinelle: add a rule to make "expression" code use
FREE_AND_NULL(), 2017-06-15).
I considered making use of the "spatch --test" option, and the choice
of a "tests" over a "t" directory is to make these tests compatible
with such a future change.
Unfortunately "spatch --test" doesn't return meaningful exit codes,
AFAICT you need to "grep" its output to see if the *.res is what you
expect. There's "--test-okfailed", but I didn't find a way to sensibly
integrate those (it relies on some in-between status files, but
doesn't help with the status codes).
Instead let's use a "--sp-file" pattern similar to the main
"coccicheck" rule, with the difference that we use and compare the
two *.res files with cmp(1).
The --very-quiet and --no-show-diff options ensure that we don't need
to pipe stdout and stderr somewhere. Unlike the "%.cocci.patch" rule
we're not using the diff.
The "cmp || git diff" is optimistically giving us better output on
failure, but even if we only have POSIX cmp and no system git
installed we'll still fail with the "cmp", just with an error message
that isn't as friendly. The "2>/dev/null" is in case we don't have a
"git" installed.

The "--patch ." part of SPATCH_FLAGS added in f57d11728d (coccinelle:
put sane filenames into output patches, 2018-07-23) should have been
added unconditionally to the "spatch" invocation instead, using it
isn't optional.
Let's also move the other mandatory flag to come after
$(SPATCH_FLAGS), to ensure that our "--sp-file" overrides any provided
in the environment, both --sp-file <arg> and --patch <arg> are
last-option-wins as far as spatch(1) option parsing is concerned.
The environment variable override was initially added in
a9a884aea5 (coccicheck: use --all-includes by default,
2016-09-30). In practice there's probably nobody that's using
SPATCH_FLAGS to try to intentionally break our invocations, but since
we're changing this let's make it clear what (if anything) we expect
to be overridden by user-supplied flags.

From looking at the {Free,Net,Dragonfly}BSD packages for git[1]
they've been monkeypatching "gitweb" out of the Makefile, let's be
nicer and provide a NO_GITWEB=Y for their use.
For the "all" target this allows for optionally restoring what's been
the status quo before the preceding commit, but now we'll also behave
correctly on the subsequent "make install".
As before our installation of gitweb can be suppressed with

Our Makefile's default target used to build 'gitweb', though
indirectly: the 'all' target depended on 'git-instaweb', which in turn
depended on 'gitweb'. Then e25c7cc146 (Makefile: drop dependency
between git-instaweb and gitweb, 2015-05-29) removed the latter
dependency, and for good reasons (quoting its commit message):
"1. git-instaweb has no build-time dependency on gitweb; it
is a run-time dependency
2. gitweb is a directory that we want to recursively make
in. As a result, its recipe is marked .PHONY, which
causes "make" to rebuild git-instaweb every time it is
run."
Since then a simple 'make' doesn't build 'gitweb'.
Luckily, installing 'gitweb' is not broken: although 'make install'
doesn't depend on the 'gitweb' target, it has a dependency on the
'install-gitweb' target, which does generate all the necessary files
for 'gitweb' and installs them. However, if someone runs 'make &&
sudo make install', then those files in the 'gitweb' directory will be
generated and owned by root, which is not nice.
List 'gitweb' as a direct dependency of the default target, so a plain
'make' will build it.

Create another thread to watch over the daemon process and
automatically shut it down if necessary.
This commit creates the basic framework for a "health" thread
to monitor the daemon and/or the file system. Later commits
will add platform-specific code to do the actual work.
The "health" thread is intended to monitor conditions that
would be difficult to track inside the IPC thread pool and/or
the file system listener threads. For example, when there are
file system events outside of the watched worktree root or if
we want to have an idle-timeout auto-shutdown feature.
This commit creates the health thread itself, defines the thread-proc
and sets up the thread's event loop. It integrates this new thread
into the existing IPC and Listener thread models.
This commit defines the API to the platform-specific code where all of
the monitoring will actually happen.
The platform-specific code for MacOS is just stubs. Meaning that the
health thread will immediately exit on MacOS, but that is OK and
expected. Future work can define MacOS-specific monitoring.
The platform-specific code for Windows sets up enough of the
WaitForMultipleObjects() machinery to watch for system and/or custom
events. Currently, the set of wait handles only includes our custom
shutdown event (sent from our other theads). Later commits in this
series will extend the set of wait handles to monitor other
conditions.

The core translation is the minimum set of work that must be done for a
new language translation.
There are over 5000 messages in the template message file "po/git.pot"
that need to be translated. It is not a piece of cake for such a huge
workload. So we used to define a small set of messages called "core
translation" that a new l10n contributor must complete before sending
pull request to the l10n coordinator.
By pulling in some parts of the git-po-helper[^1] logic, we add a new
rule to create this core translation message "po/git-core.pot":
make po/git-core.pot
To help new l10n contributors to initialized their "po/XX.pot" from
"po/git-core.pot", we also add new rules "po-init":

Remove the "po/git.pot" file from being tracked, which started with
dce37b66fb (l10n: initial git.pot for 1.7.10 upcoming release,
2012-02-13).
The reason the po/git.pot started being checked in was because the
po/*.po files were changed a schema where we'd generate them from a
known-good snapshot of po/git.pot, instead of each translator running
"make pot" themselves.
This makes sense, but we don't need to carry this file in-tree just to
achieve that aim, and doing so has resulted in a significant amount of
"diff churn" since this method of doing it was introduced:
$ git log -p --oneline -- po/git.pot|wc -l
553743
We can instead let l10n contributors to generate "po/git.pot" in runtime
to update their own "po/XX.po", and the l10n coordinator can check
pull requests using CI pipeline.
This reverts to the schema introduced initially in cd5513a716 (i18n:
Makefile: "pot" target to extract messages marked for translation,
2011-02-22).
The actual "git rm" of po/git.pot was in preceding commit to make this

We get source files saved in "$(FOUND_SOURCE_FILES)" by running the
command "git ls-files" or the command "find". We tried to have the
both commands return the same list of files, but apparently the "find"
command will return more files, such as the generated headers. We can
filter out these generated headers to get closer results.
In addition to this, "$(FOUND_SOURCE_FILES)" may contain duplicate
files. E.g. "git-ls-files" may have duplicate entries for the same file
in different staging areas if there are unresolved conflicts in the
working tree. For this case, we can reduce duplicate entries by passing
the option "--deduplicate" to git-ls-files.
Junio reported that when running "make" in a working tree with
unresolved conflicts, "make" may report warnings like below:
Makefile:xxxx: target '.build/pot/po/FOO.c.po' given more than once
in the same rule
The duplicate targets are introduced by the following pattern rule we
added in the preceding commit for incremental build of "po/git.pot".
$(LOCALIZED_C_GEN_PO): .build/pot/po/%.po: %
Although we have resolved this issue by sorting to create a unique
$(LOCALIZED_C), other targets may benefit from this. Such as: tags,
cscope.out, etc.

In the preceding commit we moved away from using xgettext(1) to both
generate the po/git.pot, and to merge the incrementally generated
po/git.pot+ file as we sourced translations from C, shell and Perl.
Doing it this way, which dates back to my initial
implementation[1][2][3] was conflating two things: With xgettext(1)
the --from-code both controls what encoding is specified in the
po/git.pot's header, and what encoding we allow in source messages.
We don't ever want to allow non-ASCII in *source messages*, and doing
so has hid e.g. a buggy message introduced in
a6226fd772 (submodule--helper: convert the bulk of cmd_add() to C,
2021-08-10) from us, we'd warn about it before, but only when running
"make pot", but the operation would still succeed. Now we'll error out
on it when running "make pot".
Since the preceding Makefile changes made this easy: let's add a "make
check-pot" target with the same prerequisites as the "po/git.pot"
target, but without changing the file "po/git.pot". Running it as part
of the "static-analysis" CI target will ensure that we catch any such
issues in the future. E.g.:
$ make check-pot
XGETTEXT .build/pot/po/builtin/submodule--helper.c.po
xgettext: Non-ASCII string at builtin/submodule--helper.c:3381.
Please specify the source encoding through --from-code.

Before commit fc0fd5b23b (Makefile: help gettext tools to cope with our
custom PRItime format, 2017-07-20), we'd consider source files as-is
with gettext, but because we need to understand PRItime in the same way
that gettext itself understands PRIuMAX, we'd first check if we had a
clean checkout, then munge all of the processed files in-place with
"sed", generate "po/git.pot", and then finally "reset --hard" to undo
our changes.
By generating "pot" snippets in ".build/pot/po" for each source file
and rewriting certain source files with PRItime macros to temporary
files in ".build/pot/po", we can avoid running "make pot" by altering
files in place and doing a "reset --hard" afterwards.
This speed of "make pot" is slower than before on an initial run,
because we run "xgettext" many times (once per source file), but it
can be boosted by parallelization. It is *much* faster for incremental
runs, and will allow us to implement related targets in subsequent
commits.
When the "pot" target was originally added in cd5513a716 (i18n:
Makefile: "pot" target to extract messages marked for translation,
2011-02-22) it behaved like a "normal" target. I.e. we'd skip the
re-generation of the po/git.pot if nothing had to be done.
Then after po/git.pot was checked in in dce37b66fb (l10n: initial
git.pot for 1.7.10 upcoming release, 2012-02-13) the target was broken
until 1f31963e92 (i18n: treat "make pot" as an explicitly-invoked
target, 2014-08-22) when it was made to depend on "FORCE". I.e. the
Makefile's dependency resolution inherently can't handle incremental
building when the target file may be updated by git (or something else
external to "make"). But this case no longer applies, so FORCE is no
longer needed.
That out of the way, the main logic change here is getting rid of the
"reset --hard":
We'll generate intermediate ".build/pot/po/%.po" files from "%", which
is handy to see at a glance what strings (if any) in a given file are
marked for translation:
$ make .build/pot/po/pretty.c.po
[...]
$ cat .build/pot/po/pretty.c.po
#: pretty.c:1051
msgid "unable to parse --pretty format"
msgstr ""
$
For these C source files which contain the PRItime macros, we will
create temporary munged "*.c" files in a tree in ".build/pot/po"
corresponding to our source tree, and have "xgettext" consider those.
The rule needs to be careful to "(cd .build/pot/po && ...)", because
otherwise the comments in the po/git.pot file wouldn't refer to the
correct source locations (they'd be prefixed with ".build/pot/po").
These temporary munged "*.c” files will be removed immediately after
the corresponding po files are generated, because some development tools
cannot ignore the duplicate source files in the ".build" directory
according to the ".gitignore" file, and that may cause trouble.
The output of the generated po/git.pot file is changed in one minor
way: Because we're using msgcat(1) instead of xgettext(1) to
concatenate the output we'll now disambiguate where "TRANSLATORS"
comments come from, in cases where a message is the same in N files,
and either only one has a "TRANSLATORS" comment, or they're
different. E.g. for the "Your edited hunk[...]" message we'll now
apply this change (comment content elided):
+#. #-#-#-#-# add-patch.c.po #-#-#-#-#
#. TRANSLATORS: do not translate [y/n]
[...]
+#. #-#-#-#-# git-add--interactive.perl.po #-#-#-#-#
#. TRANSLATORS: do not translate [y/n]
[...]
#: add-patch.c:1253 git-add--interactive.perl:1244
msgid ""
"Your edited hunk does not apply. Edit again (saying \"no\" discards!) [y/n]? "
msgstr ""
There are six such changes, and they all make the context more
understandable, as msgcat(1) is better at handling these edge cases
than xgettext(1)'s previously used "--join-existing" flag.
But filenames in the above disambiguation lines of extracted-comments
have an extra ".po" extension compared to the filenames at the file
locations. While we could rename the intermediate ".build/pot/po/%.po"
files without the ".po" extension to use more intuitive filenames in
the disambiguation lines of extracted-comments, but that will confuse
developer tools with lots of invalid C or other source files in
".build/pot/po" directory.
The addition of "--omit-header" option for xgettext makes the "pot"
snippets in ".build/pot/po/*.po" smaller. But as we'll see in a
subsequent commit this header behavior has been hiding an
encoding-related bug from us, so let's carry it forward instead of
re-generating it with xgettext(1).
The "po/git.pot" file should have a header entry, because a proper
header entry will increase the speed of creating a new po file using
msginit and set a proper "POT-Creation-Date:" field in the header
entry of a "po/XX.po" file. We use xgettext to generate a separate
header file at ".build/pot/git.header" from "/dev/null", and use this
header to assemble "po/git.pot".

Different users may generate a different message template file
"po/git.pot". This is because the POT file is generated from
"$(LOCALIZED_C)", which is supposed to list all the sources that we
extract the strings to be translated from. But "$(LOCALIZED_C)"
includes "$(C_OBJ)", which only lists the source files used in the
current build for a specific platform and specific compiler
conditions.
Instead of using "$(C_OBJ)", we use "$(FOUND_C_SOURCES)", which lists
all source files we keep track of (or ship in a tarball extract), to
form a stable "LOCALIZED_C". We also add "$(SCALAR_SOURCES)", which
is part of "$(C_OBJ)" but not included in "$(FOUND_C_SOURCES)".
With this update, the newly generated "po/git.pot" will have 30 new
entries coming from the following C source files:

We will feed xgettext with more C source files and in different order
in subsequent commit. To generate a stable "po/git.pot" regardless of
the number and order of input source files, we sort the c, perl, and
shell source files in groups before feeding them to xgettext.
Ævar suggested that we should not pass the option "--sort-by-file" to
xgettext to sort the translatable strings, as it will mix the three
groups of source files (c, perl and shell) in the file "po/git.pot",
and change the order of translatable strings in the same line of a file.
With this update, the newly generated "po/git.pot" will have the same
entries while in a different order.
With the help of a custom diff driver as shown below,
git config --global diff.gettext-fmt.textconv \
"msgcat --no-location --sort-by-file"
and appending a new entry "*.pot diff=gettext-fmt" to git attributes,
we can see that there are no substantial changes in "po/git.pot".
We won't checkin the newly generated "po/git.pot", because we will
remove it from tree in a later commit.
