Re: How to make strings fuzzy without changing them

[Daniel Mustieles García <daniel mustieles gmail com>]

Po files should not be directly modified by developers 😉

In this case, if you think original string can be confusing, you can add a comment or context to it. Not sure about comment, but context will make it be marked as fuzzy, so problem solved.

Thanks. For making our lives.... interesting.

I think that the easiest way is to use a PCRE in the git repo directly.
Something like (not tested)

perl -pi -e 's!foo!\#,\ fuzzy\nfoo!' if !(/\#,\ fuzzy\n!) po/*.po

Please do not do it though if you do not want to ask how to disappear
completely and never been found. ;)

Best regards,
Yuri
