 I'm using a VCS to track my i18n directory, and very often after changing
 one or two strings, the content change elsewhere after launching "python
 manage.py makemessages".

 For example :


 {{{
 -"    lorem ipsum etc.\n"
 +"   lorem ipsum "
 +"etc.\n"
 }}}


 Or :

 {{{
 -msgstr ""
 -"Django, Le framework web pour les perfectionnistes ayant des échéances"
 +msgstr "Django, Le framework web pour les perfectionnistes ayant des
 échéances"
 }}}


 It makes merge and rebase a lot more complicated, because it prevent them
 to be done automatically by the VCS.

 Would it be feasible to have some fixed format that would make the locale
 directory more stable ?
