I think it's too early to offload properties from repo-metadata.git to
gitlab because we are still far from migrating all project to gitlab.
Here is how the i18n data can be folded into yaml (example of Konsole [1]):
description: KDE's terminal emulator.
[...]
projectpath: kde/applications/konsole
repoactive: true
repopath: konsole
type: project
i18n:
branches:
trunk: none
stable: none
stable_kf5: release/19.12
trunk_kf5: master
The idea is to insert the data from i18n.json into the main YAML under
i18n.branches. Also, the "none" values can be omitted, I guess.
