            Bug ID: 1207475
           Summary: RFE: allow translation directories to be nested in
                    source directory for 'file' project type.
           Product: Zanata
           Version: 3.7
         Component: Component-zanata-client
          Severity: medium
          Assignee: djansen at redhat.com

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}/*).
