Description
I would like to run makemessages as a pre-commit procedure but makemessages always modify the content of my PO file even if translations didn't actually changed.
-"POT-Creation-Date: 2013-01-09 09:36+0100\n" +"POT-Creation-Date: 2013-01-10 09:41+0100\n" ... -#: forms.py:28 +#: forms.py:32
For line numbers I can use --no-location but how can I ask to not update the Creation-Date if there is no translation changes ?

Sorry, to reopen discussion about old problem. This is clearly not duplicate of #6106. #6106 is about the fact that makemessages updates POT-Creation-Date when there are changes and this is expected. This defect is about the fact that POT-Creation-Date is updated even if there are no changes.
I am affected by this problem and only see that others are affected as well. E.g.:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28114368/detecting-changes-to-django-translations-po-files-in-travisci
https://shuup.readthedocs.io/en/latest/_modules/shuup/core/management/commands/makemessages.html - here is Django based product that is monkey patching Django.
