Actually only programs in C and shell scripts are prepared for translation. Currently there is no infrastructure for translating scripts implemented in Perl... including Git.pm module and gitweb. =20 > > =A0* "git checkout --detach " is a more user friendly synon= ym for > > =A0 "git checkout ^0". >=20 > What is the interest? What do you mean? "git checkout ^0" is quite cryptic way to detach HEAD, and requires deeper knowledge of Git... though I am not sure why somebody not knowledgeable in Git might want to detach HEAD explicitly at given commmit / branch. > > =A0* "git checkout" performed on detached HEAD gives a warning and > > =A0 advice when the commit being left behind will become unreachab= le from > > =A0 any branch or tag. >=20 > No sure to understand, it's not already the case? It is reworked to show warning and advice only when it is really needed. --=20 Jakub Narebski Poland ShadeHawk on #git
