This one has _(translation) still lurking here. prio_names[] should
not be translated.
prio_names[] is defined as file-scope static.
static const char *prio_names[] = {
N_("head"), N_("lightweight"), N_("annotated"),
};
In describe_commit(), the length of _(prio_names[]) is measured only
for debugging purposes (which is outside the pre-context of the
above hunk), and they are shown with the fprintf() we see above.
The values in prio_names[] should lose N_() around them, and all _()
around prio_names[] should bbe removed to make this conversion
complete. Perhaps prio_names[] should be moved to that if (debug)
block, which is the only user of that array. It may even make sense
to rename prio_names[] to make it clear that it is only used for
debugging output and nothing else.
So, earlier I said this looks ready for 'next', but no, it still
needs a bit more work.
