  12DESCRIPTION
  13-----------
  14
  15This is not a command the end user would want to run.  Ever.
  16This documentation is meant for people who are studying the
  17Porcelain-ish scripts and/or are writing new ones.
  18
  19The 'git sh-i18n scriptlet is designed to be sourced (using
  20`.`) by Git's porcelain programs implemented in shell
  21script. It provides wrappers for the GNU `gettext` and
  22`eval_gettext` functions accessible through the `gettext.sh`
  23script, and provides pass-through fallbacks on systems
  24without GNU gettext.

  26FUNCTIONS
  27---------
  28
  29gettext::
  30        Currently a dummy fall-through function implemented as a wrapper
  31        around `printf(1)`. Will be replaced by a real gettext
  32        implementation in a later version.
  33
  34eval_gettext::
  35        Currently a dummy fall-through function implemented as a wrapper
  36        around `printf(1)` with variables expanded by the
  37        linkgit:git-sh-i18n--envsubst[1] helper. Will be replaced by a
  38        real gettext implementation in a later version.
