Why would you include generated file in a repo?
Do they take to long to remake?
[EDIT]: especially given the fact that they're using bazel which is supposed to be the bee's knees of build system?
- SerCe 4y agoThe article uses the term generated, but a more precise term could be "produced by translators". The files can't be simply regenerated. We've recently published [1] a separate post that explains the localisation process in more detail. [1]: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28931601 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28931601
