Subject: [PATCH v3 0/2] Silence po catalog output under "make -s"
Date: Sun, 21 Jun 2026 14:56:41 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <pull.2339.v3.git.git.1782053803.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.2339.v2.git.git.1781995570677.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
The gitk and git-gui are noisy despite "make -s", quiet the builds.
Changes in v3:
* Split the single combined commit into two, one per Makefile (gitk,
git-gui)
* gitk: gate the quiet helpers on -s in MAKEFLAGS and give the catalog rule
a QUIET_MSGFMT prefix, so a silent build emits no MSGFMT/GEN lines
* git-gui: replace the QUIET_MSGFMT0/QUIET_MSGFMT1 pair with a single
QUIET_MSGFMT, since with --statistics gone there is no output left to
reformat
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

## Commit message ##
- gitk, git-gui: drop msgfmt --statistics output
+ gitk: make "make -s" silent
- The catalog rules ran msgfmt with --statistics, whose output went to
- stderr and so survived "make -s" (gitk also echoed "Generating
- catalog").
+ The catalog rule runs msgfmt with --statistics, whose output goes to
+ stderr and so survives "make -s", and the rule also echoes "Generating
+ catalog". The Gitk Makefile guards its quiet helpers on V alone, so a
+ silent build still prints these and the GEN line.
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.
+ invoke msgfmt with --statistics, 2021-12-17). Drop them, suppress the
+ quiet helpers when "s" is among the make flags, and give the catalog
+ rule a quiet prefix so a quiet build stays quiet.
