2024-04-19maint: Generate doc/version[-LANG].texi using `mdate-from-git.scm'....This replaces Automake's `build-aux/mdate-sh' with our own `build-aux/mdate-from-git.scm' to use reproducible timestamps from Git instead. * build-aux/mdate-from-git.scm: New script. * bootstrap: Use it to replace build-aux/mdate-sh. * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add it.

2021-06-13bootstrap: Simplify search for translation languages....Extend the sed script to also behave like "basename", saving the addtional call of "xargs basename". * bootstrap (langs): Extend sed scripts, remove running xargs. Hartmut Goebel
