Description David Mason 2015-03-31 01:35:32 UTC 
Description of problem:

The current implementation of raw project type requires that trans-dir will not be a subdirectory of src-dir. If trans-dir is set within src-dir, translated files will be treated as additional source files.

Ding-Yi Chen notes in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=884347#c4

> Except for publican (podir) or man page, most projects I have seen are like
> 
> Source: document.ext
> Translation: document_<locale>.ext


Actual results:

This layout is valid:

 - {project}/source/document.txt
 - {project}/de/document.txt
 - {project}/ja/document.txt

This layout is not valid, all 3 documents are treated as source and the behaviour is undefined when pushing and pulling (in practice, cycles of pull and push will keep adding more nested /de and /ja directories).

 - {project}/document.txt
 - {project}/de/document.txt
 - {project}/ja/document.txt


Desired results:

Both of the above layouts are valid and translation files are not treated as source in either case. A file should be recognized as a translation file if it is within an expected translation directory (e.g. {trans-dir}/{locale}/*).
