XLIFF Simple Merge

This program automates the merging of XLIFF files (version 1.2 and 2.0).
New translations from the input file (e.g. "messages.xlf") are merged into the destination file (e.g "messages.fr-FR.xlf"), while keeping exising translations intact.
Removed translations will be removed in the input file.

This can be used as post-processing to angular i18n extraction, to update translations files.

Angular users: It is recommended to _not_ use this program directly but the custom angular tooling: ng-extract-i18n-merge

Usage

Either install via npm i -g xliff-simple-merge or run directly with npx xliff-simple-merge.

* If different input files contains the same unit IDs, only the latter ones will be used.
* The input units may contain target nodes. They will be used in the destination units only if they don't contain any net.
