Description

## steps

I setup my template as follows to support both java and scala templates. This can be decided by using the scala respectively java parameter (true/false)

src/main/$if(java.truthy)$java$endif$/$package$/Class.scala
src/main/$if(scala.truthy)$scala$endif$/$package$/Class.java

## problem

If i run this template on Windows using sbt new file://{templatepath} (SBT 1.5.5)

if java = true and scala = false it will produce the following dirs:
src/main/java/{package}/Class.java
src/main/{package}/Class.scala
and if scala = true and java = false to:
src/main/scala/{package}/Class.scala
src/main/{package}/Class.java

Which is not as expected

## expectation

this should be evaluated if java = true and scala = false to:
src/main/java/{package}/Class.java
and if scala = true and java = false to:
src/main/scala/{package}/Class.scala

This works properly on an Unix System (SBT 1.5.5) but does not work correctly on an Windows machine (SBT 1.5.5) (using the same template)

Research direction

Reproduce the template with `sbt new file://{templatepath}` on Windows using SBT 1.5.5, testing both java=true/scala=false and scala=true/java=false. Compare the generated paths with the Unix results and the expected paths in the issue; done means only the selected language directory is created and the file is placed there.
