75 This trick arranges for messages to be emitted in the user's
76 requested encoding, but avoids setting LC_CTYPE from the
77 environment for the whole program.
79 This primarily done to avoid a bug in vsnprintf in the GNU C
80 Library [1]. which triggered a "your vsnprintf is broken" error
81 on Git's own repository when inspecting v0.99.6~1 under a UTF-8
82 locale.
84 That commit contains a ISO-8859-1 encoded author name, which
85 the locale aware vsnprintf(3) won't interpolate in the format
86 argument, due to mismatch between the data encoding and the
87 locale.
89 Even if it wasn't for that bug we wouldn't want to use LC_CTYPE at
90 this point, because it'd require auditing all the code that uses C
91 functions whose semantics are modified by LC_CTYPE.
93 But only setting LC_MESSAGES as we do creates a problem, since
94 we declare the encoding of our PO files[2] the gettext
95 implementation will try to recode it to the user's locale, but
96 without LC_CTYPE it'll emit something like this on 'git init'
97 under the Icelandic locale:
99 Bj? til t?ma Git lind ? /hlagh/.git/
101 Gettext knows about the encoding of our PO file, but we haven't
102 told it about the user's encoding, so all the non-US-ASCII
103 characters get encoded to question marks.
105 But we're in luck! We can set LC_CTYPE from the environment
106 only while we call nl_langinfo and
107 bind_textdomain_codeset. That suffices to tell gettext what
108 encoding it should emit in, so it'll now say:
110 Bjó til tóma Git lind í /hlagh/.git/
112 And the equivalent ISO-8859-1 string will be emitted under a
113 ISO-8859-1 locale.
115 With this change way we get the advantages of setting LC_CTYPE
116 (talk to the user in his language/encoding), without the major
117 drawbacks (changed semantics for C functions we rely on).
119 However foreign functions using other message catalogs that
120 aren't using our neat trick will still have a problem, e.g. if
121 we have to call perror(3):
123 #include <stdio.h>
124 #include <locale.h>
125 #include <errno.h>
127 int main(void)
129 setlocale(LC_MESSAGES, "");
130 setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "C");
131 errno = ENODEV;
132 perror("test");
133 return 0;
136 Running that will give you a message with question marks:
138 $ LANGUAGE= LANG=de_DE.utf8 ./test
139 test: Kein passendes Ger?t gefunden
141 The vsnprintf bug has been fixed since glibc 2.17.
143 Then we could simply set LC_CTYPE from the environment, which would
144 make things like the external perror(3) messages work.
146 See t/t0203-gettext-setlocale-sanity.sh's "gettext.c" tests for
147 regression tests.
