Back when mozpack.path was added, it was used as:
import mozpack.path
mozpack.path.func()
Nowadays, the common idiom is:
import mozpack.path as mozpath
mozpath.func()
because it's shorter.
$ git grep mozpath\\. | wc -l
423
$ git grep mozpack.path\\. | wc -l
123
This change was done with:
$ git grep -l mozpack.path\\. | xargs sed -i 's/mozpack\.path\./mozpath./g'
$ git grep -l 'import mozpack.path$' | xargs sed -i 's/import mozpack.path$/\0 as mozpath/'
$ (pat='import mozpack.path as mozpath'; git grep -l "$pat" | xargs sed -i "1,/$pat/b;/$pat/d")
We're using as many defaults from the configure step as we can. We're also opinionated upon the defaults, but obviously allow most compare-locales options to be specified.
There are two exceptions:
Reference language is specified to be en-US, without optional argument. This is our in-tree command, and the reference language is known.
We always clobber the merge dir, and don't give an option not to. We default to a merge dir in the objdir, so we don't need to be that paranoid as in the standalone version.
Also, compare-locales clobbers merge-dir/browser etc, so you're not going to get / removed.
