[Python-apps-team] Bug#707703: mercurial: Translation missing for yes/no question, but requires translated input from user

[mycae]

Package: mercurial
Version: 2.2.2-3
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

During a merge, it is possible for mercurial to launch an external tool to do the merge. If the results of the merge are discarded, mercurial will ask the user if the merge was successful (y/n). However, it will only accept translated user input (under de-DE, this is "j/n").


The de.po file appears to be untranslated in the .po  file from latest mercurial stable repo:
http://selenic.com/hg/file/12459bfa4b59/i18n/de.po

8<---
#, python-format
msgid "was merge of '%s' successful (yn)?"
msgstr ""

#, python-format
msgid ""
" output file %s appears unchanged\n"
"was merge successful (yn)?"
msgstr ""
8<---

Either translating this string, or accepting english input would be the right thing to do here, I guess. I am not able to provide a proper translation myself, unfortunately. (something like "Datei %s war nicht geändert - war zussammenfügung erfolgreich? (j/n)").

Thanks.
