No diff for .po files #2065

Closed ismagilli closed 4 months ago

ismagilli commented 4 months ago

I found that fork does not display a text diff for files with .po extension. Note: .po files are plain text (usually in utf8 encoding) files with translations. They are used by GNU gettext.

.po files are plain text (usually in utf8 encoding) files with translations.

May be they are in utf-16 which is not handled well by git?

Try to add *.po text to the .gitattributes file.

@DanPristupov No, this is utf8 text. But the problem was with git attributes. In the repository I was working with, the -diff attribute was set for .po files. Thanks!
