           Summary: Add pre-receive hook to validate .desktop files
    Classification: Infrastructure
           Product: sysadmin
           Version: unspecified
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: Git

     GNOME version: ---


As discussed on gnome-i18n[1], it would be useful if there was a pre-receive
hook to prevent translators pushing commits which break .desktop files. This
hook could use desktop-file-validate[2] to check the .desktop files; similarly
to how the existing pre-receive-check-po script uses msgfmt to check .po files.
