Yes, I saw this erroneous diff, but it seems for me that short
information to ignore this particular error in given changeset number,
would be enough to avoid problems, still don't understand why we were
told not to delete processed changesets in "changes new revisions"
subfolder.
I'm asking, because good understanding of system is best way to avoid
errors.
Greetings, Greg.

Hi,
For each Git revision, there is “differences.txt” that lists changes to files in unified diff format. For us translators, a plus sign (+) at the start of the line indicates new strings, while a minus sign (-) indicates we should remove obsolete strings. A few days ago, there was a commit to nVDA source code to truncated what’s new entries older than 2010.2, thus causing differences text file to mark entries as no longer needed to be translated. A few days later, the old entries have returned, thus it isn’t necessary for translators to do the hard work of removing and adding back revisions they have translated.
Cheers,
Joseph

I didn't understand original announcement.
In what way, content of changes-new revisions subfolder, could affect the translated changes.t2t file, located one folder up.
As I understood, Joseph's announcement, the translated changes.t2t was truncated after 2010.1 version.
In the subject of those message, it was written:
please don't delete old what's new revisions
And then, in the mail body:
with a certain commit, old what’s new entries (changes.t2t) for
2010.1 and earlier were accidentally removed. [...] So please
don’t delete your valuable translations.
I checked, that translated pl/changes are present up to 2009.1 version, so I deleted unneeded changes new revisions and hope i didn't spoil anything...
But, just for my curiosity - I'd like to understand implied connection between untranslated changes new revisions folder, and translated changes.t2t one folder up (mechanism of using first untranslated rev. in subfolder to make structural comparisons against currently translated file is obvious).
Greetings, Greg.

Ug. I've fixed this in 38cec287 and also synced to svn. Thanks for
bringing my attention to it.

Hi all,
Old what’s new entries prior to 2010.2 have been restored, so
go ahead and remove translated revisions from your “changes
new revisions” folder. Thanks.
Cheers,
Joseph
