Introducing Brian's ngmin

Because we want to save key strokes!

I actually don't think ngmin is a good step for these kind of components.

It can really mess up users if they want to use their own minification step on their libs, and don't use ngmin. It's happened to me and I'm sure some other people.

[0x-r4bbit]

What do you mean? The ngmin task gets executed before somebody get his hands dirty on ngTranslate. It's just for development purposes.

[0x-r4bbit]

Which means, if you use ngTranslate, the source is already annotated :)

[ajoslin]

Ah, so you still distribute ng-translate.js ng-min'd. Duh :-)

[ajoslin]

Haha for some reason I always did it I only ng-min'd if I was going to minify.

[0x-r4bbit]

Yeah, so as long as you develop on ngTranslate and just use watch task, nothing happens. When you're ready to generate a production ready files, you'd run grunt build which concatenates the source, runs ngmin on it and uglifies it afterwards.

In the end you have to files. Both are annotated.
