Description

Exception encountered, of type "Exception"
[0e595bfe] [no req]   Exception from line 25 of /vagrant/mediawiki/extensions/LocalisationUpdate/fetcher/GitHubFetcher.php: 
  Unable to get directory listing for wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-VisualEditor
Backtrace:
#0 /vagrant/mediawiki/extensions/LocalisationUpdate/Updater.php(115): LU_GitHubF
etcher->fetchDirectory(string)
#1 /vagrant/mediawiki/extensions/LocalisationUpdate/Updater.php(137): LU_Updater

The URL that is fetched is https://api.github.com/repos/wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-VisualEditor/contents/lib/ve/i18n which matches the on disk layout of a clone of the repository, but lib/ve is a submodule. The correct URL to get l10n files via GitHub's api is https://api.github.com/repos/wikimedia/VisualEditor/contents/i18n.

As a first step we can catch the exception so that processing does not stop.

As per how to fix this... I am not really sure how would we know to use the different path without hard coding an exception for VE.

@Nikerabbit, @Jdforrester-WMF - is this still relevant?

First time I've seen this; re-worded to make clear where the issue is.

The LocalisationUpdate extensions has been archived. See T309694 for details.
