[Wesnoth-dev] make should not alter files in CVS

[John McNabb]

Hey all, 
        I have found it a little irritating that the current make scheme 
invalidates/update nearly all files in the po directory.  This means that 
when updating from CVS, the process is significantly slowed down by 
waiting to get all the file "changes" merged.  I presume that this is part 
of the whole translation mechanism, so I don't want to go willy-nilly 
changing the scheme, but is there any way to have the make scheme not do 
this without overhauling the translation mechanism?  Maybe push the 
translation parsing code that generates this into a 'make translate' and 
remove it from the default? 

Yes, I know that I could specify updating individual directories and files 
to update, but I often like to make sure that my whole wesnoth directory 
is up to date and I don't want to just run a single (simple) command to do 
this.
