PREFIX and INSTALL_BASE are mutually exclusive. If both are supplied
by INSTALL_BASE being set in PERL_MM_OPT ExtUtils::MakeMaker will
produce an error:
$ echo $PERL_MM_OPT
INSTALL_BASE=/home/avar/perl5
$ make -C perl PERL_PATH='/usr/bin/perl' prefix='/home/avar' perl.mak
make: Entering directory `/home/avar/g/git/perl'
/usr/bin/perl Makefile.PL PREFIX='/home/avar'
Only one of PREFIX or INSTALL_BASE can be given. Not both.
make: *** [perl.mak] Error 255
make: Leaving directory `/home/avar/g/git/perl'
Change the perl Makefile to work around this by explicitly unsetting
INSTALL_BASE.
INSTALL_BASE is set in PERL_MM_OPT by e.g. the popular local::lib
package, from its documentation:
eval $(perl -I$HOME/perl5/lib/perl5 -Mlocal::lib 2>/dev/null)
Many other environments might also have set PERL_MM_OPT before
building Git. This change enables us to build in these environments.

All of the interface messages in Git core are currently hardcoded in
English. Change that by optionally enabling translation of the core C,
Shell and Perl programs via GNU or SunOS gettext. If you set the
appropriate LC_* variables Git will speak your language, provided that
someone has submitted a translation.
If gettext isn't available, or if Git is compiled with
NO_GETTEXT=YesPlease, then Git fall back on its previous behavior of
only speaking English. When using ./configure the autoconf script will
auto-detect if the gettext libraries are installed and act
appropriately.
With NO_GETTEXT=YesPlease gettext support will be #defined away for C
programs. For Shell and Perl programs we rely on the git message
catalog not being available. That's a reasonable assumption since then
the message catalog won't be installed on the system during make
install.
The gettext wrappers that are provided in the patch are only the bare
minimum required to begin translation work. In particular I haven't
added wrappers for the gettext functions that enable plural support,
or those that provide message context (msgctxt).
Those can be added later. The intent is to start with a small subset
and see what we need later, not to start with something that's
unnecessarily large right away.
Implementation and usage notes:
* General:
Gettext .mo files will be installed and looked for in the standard
$(prefix)/share/locale path. GIT_TEXTDOMAINDIR can also be set to
override that, but that's only intended to be used to test Git
itself.
* Perl:
Perl code that wants to be localized should use the new Git::I18n
module. It imports a __ function into the caller's package by
default.
Instead of using the high level Locale::TextDomain interface I've
opted to use the low-level (equivalent to the C interface)
Locale::Messages module, which Locale::TextDomain itself uses.
Locale::TextDomain does a lot of redundant work we don't need, and
some of it would potentially introduce bugs. It tries to set the
$TEXTDOMAIN based on package of the caller, and has its own
hardcoded paths where it'll search for messages.
I found it easier just to completely avoid it rather than try to
circumvent its behavior. In any case, this is an issue wholly
internal Git::I18N. Its guts can be changed later if that's deemed
necessary.
See <AANLkTilYD_NyIZMyj9dHtVk-ylVBfvyxpCC7982LWnVd@mail.gmail.com>
for a further elaboration on this topic.
* Shell:
Shell code that's to be localized should use the new git-sh-i18n
library. It's just a wrapper for the system's gettext.sh.
If gettext.sh isn't available we'll fall back gettext(1) if it's
available. The latter is available without the former on Solaris,
which has its own non-GNU gettext implementation. We also need to
emulate eval_gettext() there.
If neither are present we'll use a dumb printf(1) fall-through
wrapper.
I originally tried to detect if the system supported `echo -n' but
I found this to be a waste of time. My benchmarks on Linux, Solaris
and FreeBSD reveal that printf(1) is fast enough, especially since
we aren't calling gettext() from within any tight loops, and
unlikely to ever do so.
This series has been tested by me on Ubuntu 10.04, Debian testing,
FreeBSD 8.1 and SunOS 5.10, and by others on Mac OS X 10.6.3 (with
Xcode 3.2.2) and openSUSE Factory (11.3, milestone 7).
SunOS has its own non-GNU gettext implementation which this patch
supports, although that may change in the future if it turns out that
we need some GNU libintl features that SunOS doesn't provide.
This patch is based on work by Jeff Epler <jepler@unpythonic.net> who
did the initial Makefile / C work, and a lot of comments from the Git
mailing list, including Jonathan Nieder, Jakub Narebski, Johannes
Sixt, Peter Krefting, Junio C Hamano, Thomas Rast and others.

Building with prefix=/some/where and temporarily installing it to
elsewhere for tar'ing up is done with:
make prefix=/some/where
make prefix=/some/where DESTDIR=/else/where install
Make handcrafted perl/perl.mak without NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER honour DESTDIR.
Ancient ExtUtils::MakeMaker (pre 6.11?) has the same issue, but recent
versions of Perl ships with at leat 6.17; this patch does not address that
issue.

This uses "git-apply --whitespace=strip" to fix whitespace errors that have
crept in to our source files over time. There are a few files that need
to have trailing whitespaces (most notably, test vectors). The results
still passes the test, and build result in Documentation/ area is unchanged.

There is a mechanism PERL_PATH in the Makefile to specify path to
Perl binary, but sometimes it is convenient to let 'env' figure
out where Perl comes from, with PERL_PATH="/usr/bin/env perl".
Allowing this would make things easier to MacPorts, where we wish
to work with the MacPorts perl if it is installed, but fall back
to the system perl if it isn't.

This fixes the same issue as 8bef6204, which became an issue again
after 31d0399c.
Besides, it is not really helpful to print just "GEN " (_without_

Per Junio's suggestion we are setting 'make' to be quiet by default,
with `make V=1` available to force GNU make back to its default
behavior of showing each command it is running.

I find it difficult to see compiler warnings amongst the massive
spewing produced by GNU make as it works through our productions.
This is especially true if CFLAGS winds up being rather long, due
to a large number of -W options being enabled and due to a number
of -D options being configured/required by my platform.
By defining QUIET_MAKE (e.g. make QUIET_MAKE=YesPlease) during
compilation users will get a less verbose output, such as:
...
CC builtin-grep.c
builtin-grep.c:187: warning: 'external_grep' defined but not used
CC builtin-init-db.c
CC builtin-log.c
CC builtin-ls-files.c
CC builtin-ls-tree.c
...
The verbose (normal make) output is still the default.

An earlier commit f848718a broke the build in perl/ directory by
allowing the Makefile.PL to overwrite the now-tracked Makefile.
Fix this by forcing Makefile.PL to produce its output in

On Cygwin + ActivateState Perl, Makefile generated with
MakeMaker is not usable because of line-endings and
back-slashes.
This teaches perl/Makefile to write a handcrafted equivalent
perl.mak file with 'make NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER=NoThanks'.
