61 =head1 NAME
63 Git::I18N - Perl interface to Git's Gettext localizations
65 =head1 SYNOPSIS
67 use Git::I18N;
69 print __("Welcome to Git!\n");
71 printf __("The following error occurred: %s\n"), $error;
73 =head1 DESCRIPTION
75 Git's internal Perl interface to gettext via L<Locale::Messages>. If
76 L<Locale::Messages> can't be loaded (it's not a core module) we
77 provide stub passthrough fallbacks.
79 This is a distilled interface to gettext, see C<info '(gettext)Perl'>
80 for the full interface. This module implements only a small part of
81 it.
83 =head1 FUNCTIONS
85 =head2 __($)
87 L<Locale::Messages>'s gettext function if all goes well, otherwise our
88 passthrough fallback function.
