Anyway, if that works it's a cleaner way to disable it.

Yes, that works. But that is a work-around, not a solution. I already
told the make system not to translate git, why should I have to
anything else? In fact, I did exactly what the documentation at the
top of the makefile told me to do. It says to set NO_GETTEXT, nothing
about clearing NEEDS_LIBINTL.

Oh yeah that's definitely a bug that I need to solve. But that should
just be something like:

ifdef NO_GETTEXT
   NEEDS_LIBINTL =
endif

Stuck in some strategic location. Then it all should just work.

Well, there you go. That's one of the things that needs to get fixed ;)

I don't quite understand why you won't do it the way I just proposed
(and IIRC a while ago by Hannes), though.
