[Github-comments] [geany] Move filetypes.* and *.tags to separate directories (#485)

[Jiří Techet]

@b4n OK, I think I misunderstood your original post, I thought you meant reading new first, old second (and it's the other way round).

I think exceptions like this make things more confusing for users at the end. And after the patch things will work the same way as before for the "misbehaving" users - their updated filetypes won't be read (previously they were overwritten during the installation, after the patch they will be read from a different location). The new location should be mentioned in the release notes so people who need to update file definitions in the system directory know the new location.
