You cannot really call it a bug, the project settings contain no field to
define  a directory.

You might prefer single projects, but e.g. a refresh_stat command should be
used across all projects.

personally I prefer to start the sync command on all projects, and leave
the terminal (go for coffee) while it runs. I also highly agree with sebb
that not using the same name leads to more confusion, we share this server
with all (potentially) asf projects.

for general info refresh_stat has been running for more than 5 hours now,
and is finally slowly comming to an end, then I will start the sync job.
