Subject: [PATCH v2] gitk, git-gui: drop msgfmt --statistics output
Date: Sat, 20 Jun 2026 22:46:10 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <pull.2339.v2.git.git.1781995570677.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.2339.git.git.1781459539.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Harald Nordgren <haraldnordgren@gmail.com>
The catalog rules ran msgfmt with --statistics, whose output went to
stderr and so survived "make -s" (gitk also echoed "Generating
catalog").
The statistics are not needed, as in 2f12b31b746c (Makefile: don't
invoke msgfmt with --statistics, 2021-12-17), and the "Generating
catalog" line is not needed either. Remove them so a quiet build stays
quiet.

Silence po catalog output under "make -s"
The gitk and git-gui catalog rules sent msgfmt --statistics output (and
a "Generating catalog" line) to stderr, so it survived "make -s". Emit
it only when "-s" is absent, keeping a quiet build silent and a verbose
build unchanged.
Changes in v2:
* Reworked from conditionally silencing msgfmt output under make -s to
just removing --statistics outright, following 2f12b31b74 (Makefile:
don't invoke msgfmt with --statistics, 2021-12-17)
* Also drop gitk's Generating catalog echo, which is not needed either
