[bug #58248] Git depends on Gettext (which is not yet in Maneage)

[Raul Infante-Sainz]

Follow-up Comment #7, bug #58248 (project reproduce):

Thanks Mohammad. I am happy to say that after some time, I have been able to
include GNU gettext into the project. Have a look at my fork
(https://gitlab.com/infantesainz/reproduce-raulfork/-/commit/b43146918). It
worked in my macOS laptop, so check if it also works in your machine and then
merge ;-)
Just remember that there is a warning in the configure script to check if
gettext is already available in the host system (remove it if now it is not
necessary).

> Thanks Raul. Then if you have the chance, can you find where `msgfmt' is on
your system, temporarily rename it, then check if it is not installed anywhere
else:

it? If it builds, then we can only set this check for GNU/Linux systems.

time. If you have a few minutes, can you try adding and testing it (as a
dependency of Git on GNU/Linux and macOS)?
