Description

Thanks for open sourcing wire-schema, which allows us to parse the proto files, but when we try to use it along with Protobuf core library, we found similar resource file (having proto files) in both the jar. Is it possible to relocate the proto files ? Do we use them in the runtime ?

Research direction

The issue names no files or tests. Start by tracing where wire-schema and Protobuf core library package their proto resources, then determine whether Wire reads those resources at runtime. Done means documenting or implementing a relocation approach that avoids duplicate jar resources without breaking runtime behavior.
