Python anaconda install conflicting with git/gettext

Hey guys, installed Anaconda3 v5.3.0 like so

$ asdf install python anaconda3-5.3.0

and it seems that something is in conflict with gettext/git now.

What is the experienced (undesired) behaviour?

$ git pull
GNU gettext shell script function library version 0.19.8.1
Usage: . gettext.sh

What points me this way?

With python anaconda3-5.3.0

$ which gettext
~/.asdf/shims/gettext

where

$ cat ~/.asdf/shims/gettext
#!/usr/bin/env bash
# asdf-plugin: python
# asdf-plugin-version: anaconda3-5.3.0
exec /usr/local/opt/asdf/libexec/private/asdf-exec python bin/gettext "$@"

and

$ ls -al ~/.asdf/shims | wc -l
     415

Without it

After uninstalling it

$ asdf uninstall python anaconda3-5.3.0
$ git pull
Current branch master is up to date.

🎉, and FWIW, there are far fewer shims now.

$ ls -al ~/.asdf/shims | wc -l
      31

Honestly, I don't even know if this is the right place to ask this question versus this being an asdf issue, or python, or anaconda, or something completely different?

I'm open to getting help on debugging this further, or being guided to a better place to ask this, or anything else. Thanks in advance! ✌️

PS: Context folded below I'm running macOS with git 2.19.1 
$ sw_vers -productVersion
10.13.6

$ git --version
git version 2.19.1

Update / fix / workaround:

Upon digging deeper gettext is installed on my machine via homebrew.

In it's info, there was a hint at the "solution":

$ brew info gettext
gettext: stable 0.19.8.1 (bottled) [keg-only]
GNU internationalization (i18n) and localization (l10n) library
https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/
/usr/local/Cellar/gettext/0.19.8.1 (1,934 files, 16.9MB)
  Poured from bottle on 2017-01-16 at 20:56:16
From: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/gettext.rb
==> Caveats
gettext is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /usr/local,
because macOS provides the BSD gettext library & some software gets confused if both are in the library path.

If you need to have gettext first in your PATH run:
  echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/gettext/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile

# …snip…

The last bit is the relevant one: changing ~/.bash_profile to have gettext first in the PATH "fixed".

Exactly the same issue for me asdf-vm/asdf#693

Same issue for me using plugin Python mambaforge. Installing matplotlib pulls down gettext, conflicting with the system version. Uninstalling fixes things.
