I am using scancode.api.get_file_info(path) to retrieve the file type of files with typecode-libmagic installed. This leads to strange results with *.mo files:

GNU message catalog (little endian), revision 0.0, 349 messages, Project-Id-Version: django '%(datetime)s non se puido interpretar na zona hora horaria %(current_timezone)s; pode ser ambiguo ou non existir.'

It seems like some actual file content is leaking into the information here.
