Description

A snippet of my specification:

fileGroups:
  - Base.lrpoj/Info.plist

I expect Info.plist to be in the root of my project in the project navigator, but XcodeGen creates a new group called Base.lproj.

Would it be possible to add more control over what XcodeGen will generate?

Research direction

Start by tracing how the fileGroups specification is parsed and how groups are generated in XcodeGen. No files or tests are named; done means the specification can place Info.plist at the project navigator root instead of creating a Base.lproj group.
