   @ekaitz_zarraga too many files AND a src folder for the actual code.

     @ekaitz_zarragaSometimes I deal with files like modules/cache/jvm/src/main/java/coursier/cache/internal/SigWinchNativeWindows.java and I don't understand what you mean by deep structure :p@zatnosk

     @ekaitz_zarraga For a school project one of the groups submitted a repos with all the source code in the root folder, so I told the students it could be more readable making a src folder and putting the source code there. Next time they submitted their code the root folder contained only… the README and the src folder. And there was their Makefile, configure script, the actual sources, all the tests… 😩

     @ekaitz_zarraga But I tried to explain ^^ !! I think what it tells us is that «source code» is not something as obvious for students as it is for people with experience in software development. Probably for them, source code means «all the magicky stuff you have to write for it to work», and that includes everything required to compile (which in its turn tells us something about implicit dependencies which leads again to… reproducibility ^^).
