Unfuzzy

Unfuzzy removes fuzzy flag and previous msgid from PO entries, if after all replacements current msgid and previous msgid match exactly. Usually it is run after spelling changes in source language, to reduce diff noise and avoid extra review burden.

The comparison is case sensitive. The replacements are read from unfuzzy.yml in current directory, example:

- ["Nuka Cola", "Nuka-Cola"]
- ["nuka cola", "Nuka-Cola"]

Run

unfuzzy.py -w data/text/po/french.po
