We'd like to support localizing Git LFS. We have the gotext package, which supports several different ways of getting GNU gettext-compatible locale strings. However, we need some central message catalog we can use. Let's create a singleton by the name of Tr. That means that we can translate a string by writing something like this: fmt.Println(tr.Tr.Get("This is a message about %s.", subject)) These strings can be automatically extracted by the xgotext tool available from the package github.com/leonelquinteros/gotext/cli/xgotext. While currently quite slow, it does understand Go syntax, unlike the standard GNU gettext suite. We initialize it based on the locale. Since Go does not use the standard C library, we have to emulate its behavior, as outlined in locale(7). If our locale is "en_DK.UTF-8", we first look for "en_DK" and then "en", in that order. This preserves a fallback for languages which are similar across most speakers, like English and Spanish, and can share a translation, but for locales which cannot, such pt_PT and pt_BR, or zh_TW and zh_CN, this ensures we prefer a more appropriate locale. Introduce a variable called "locales" which will be used to store Base64-encoded MO files (compiled Gettext files) for each locale. We can still load external locales from the standard directory (/usr/share/locale), but this preserves the behavior of providing a single, relocatable binary, which people like. If this becomes a problem in the future, we can revisit it. Population of this variable will come in a future commit.
