Hi,
I said that last time because translators could delete old changes entries
without realizing that this is a committer eror, and they should have something
to fall back to. For now, all is well.
Cheers,
Joseph

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
