In this thread though Dehaan said this should work->

I just tried this on 1.9.1 I have /group_vars/staging/staging.yml and
/group_vars/staging/secrets.yml and it seems to me that it is not merging
the files properly.


But others said this was a problem. I just don't think this is documented
well.  If its not supposed to work I guess it shouldn't work :(

According to the documentation it should work
https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/intro_inventory.html#splitting-out-host-and-group-specific-data

Quote from the page:
"As an advanced use-case, you can create directories named after your groups or hosts, and Ansible will read all the files in these directories. An example with the ‘raleigh’ group:

  /etc/ansible/group_vars/raleigh/db_settings
  /etc/ansible/group_vars/raleigh/cluster_settings

All hosts that are in the ‘raleigh’ group will have the variables defined in these files available to them. This can be very useful to keep your variables organized when a single file starts to be too big, or when you want to use Ansible Vault on a part of a group’s variables. Note that this only works on Ansible 1.4 or later."
