I see. It sounds like the basename of the folder is not even guaranteed
based on the above statement, in which case it wouldn't even matter if the
repository names themselves were unique (instead of just our identifier for
them) as your distribution tooling would potentially discard them.
Given you are wanting to include translations, it sounds like the real fix
is something we discussed in a meeting at some point where scripty would
maintain a copy of the latest translations for a project in the actual
project repository.
I think that was being tested in one of our repositories but not sure on
the status of this.
