`msgfmt -vc` warns:
po/as.po:9: warning: header field 'Project-Id-Version' still has the initial default value
Update them all:
$ git grep -l Project-Id-Version | xargs sed 's/^"Project-Id-Version: \(.*\)\\n"$/"Project-Id-Version: NetworkManager\\n"/' -i
The documentation ([1]) says:
Project-Id-Version
This is the name and version of the package. Fill it in if it has not already
been filled in by xgettext.
but don't add the "version". We have these files in git on the devel branch,
so whenever we branch a new release, the version would change. Just say
"NetworkManager".

$ nmcli connection add type dummy con-name x autoconnect no ipv4.method disabled ipv6.method disabled ifname d0

Error: device 'd1' not compatible with connection 'x': The interface names of the device and the connection didn't match..
We no longer add these. If you use Emacs, configure it yourself.
Also, due to our "smart-tab" usage the editor anyway does a subpar
job handling our tabs. However, on the upside every user can choose
whatever tab-width he/she prefers. If "smart-tabs" are used properly
(like we do), every tab-width will work.
No manual changes, just ran commands:
F=($(git grep -l -e '-\*-'))
sed '1 { /\/\* *-\*- *[mM]ode.*\*\/$/d }' -i "${F[@]}"
sed '1,4 { /^\(#\|--\|dnl\) *-\*- [mM]ode/d }' -i "${F[@]}"
Check remaining lines with:
git grep -e '-\*-'
The ultimate purpose of this is to cleanup our files and eventually use
SPDX license identifiers. For that, first get rid of the boilerplate lines.
Correct the spelling across the *entire* tree, including translations,
comments, etc. It's easier that way.
Even the places where it's not exposed to the user, such as tests, so
that we learn how is it spelled correctly.
Use the same form everywhere: "TRANSLATORS" instead of "Translators".
The manual also seems to prefer the upper-case form [1].
$ sed 's/\<Translators\>: /TRANSLATORS: /g' $(git grep -l Translators) -i

When performing NM package upgrade the new version of nmcli will be immediately
available while NM daemon will not, as it would not restart in order to avoid
to disrupt connectivity. This could create issues with tools leveraging
on nmcli output (till reboot). As apart from this case it is very unlikely
that a user can have this nmcli / NM daemon version mismatch situation,
the check could cause more harm than benefit in real user case
scenarios.

"InfiniBand" has a capital "B". Fix that everywhere it's being used as
a human-readable string.
In particular, the RH initscripts recognize "TYPE=infiniband" and
"TYPE=InfiniBand", but not "TYPE=Infiniband", which is what we were
writing before.
