PR: https://github.com/django/django/pull/10422
Use case:
{{{
REPO_ROOT
|-- manage.py
|-- app/
| `-- ...
`-- .venv/
`-- ...
}}}
When ".venv" or another adjacent directory has a bad utf-8 marker or code
that would cause xgettext to fail the management command cannot succeed.
The workaround right now is to "cd" into the django_app and run
"../mange.py" so the current directory is now the django_app and
makemessages will properly exclude the other directories. Gettext has an
options "-D" or "--directory" which changes the directory to recurse from
the current directory to the specified directory. The patch linked adds
that option and walks that directory instead of the current directory from
the makemessages command.
