Initially, I thought that maybe we would rather have N_("mode") to match the N_("format") in the above. Then, I went poking around to see what patterns we had for these across the codebase (never a good idea). An example similar to what you propose exists in builtin/branch.c: OPT_CALLBACK_F('t', "track", &track, "(direct|inherit)", N_("set branch tracking configuration"), PARSE_OPT_OPTARG, parse_opt_tracking_mode), or this instance in builtin/checkout-index.c: OPT_CALLBACK_F(0, "stage", NULL, "(1|2|3|all)", N_("copy out the files from named stage"), In diff.c, the descriptors exist in angle brackets, so the right thing would be N_("<mode>"). This seems non-standard compared to most other places. Here is a similar stale translatable regex in diff.c: OPT_CALLBACK_F(0, "diff-filter", options, N_("[(A|C|D|M|R|T|U|X|B)...[*]]"), N_("select files by diff type"), So if you are looking into these kinds of replacements, it might be good to add instances like this. They are less important to the 2.38.0 release, though. This long-winded email is all just to say that I've looked into the standard way to handle this and agree that you are changing the code to match our best practices. Thanks, -Stolee

I don't know which form is preferred in the code, but I did find that usage_argh adds the angle brackets if they are not already present: static int usage_argh(const struct option *opts, FILE *outfile) { const char *s; int literal = (opts->flags & PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP) || !opts->argh || !!strpbrk(opts->argh, "()<>[]|"); if (opts->flags & PARSE_OPT_OPTARG) if (opts->long_name) s = literal ? "[=%s]" : "[=<%s>]"; else s = literal ? "[%s]" : "[<%s>]"; else s = literal ? " %s" : " <%s>"; return utf8_fprintf(outfile, s, opts->argh ? _(opts->argh) : _("...")); } > Here is a similar stale translatable regex in diff.c: > > OPT_CALLBACK_F(0, "diff-filter", options, N_("[(A|C|D|M|R|T|U|X|B)...[*]]"), > N_("select files by diff type"), > > So if you are looking into these kinds of replacements, it might be > good to add instances like this.

Yeah, that one probably shouldn't be translatable either. > This long-winded email is all just to say that I've looked into the > standard way to handle this and agree that you are changing the code > to match our best practices. Thanks! I appreciate the feedback. -Alex

These strings are not translatable in the diagnose_options array in diagnose.c. Don't translate them in builtin/diagnose.c either. Signed-off-by: Alex Henrie <alexhenrie24@gmail.com> --- builtin/diagnose.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-)
