Description (last modified by Tim Graham)

The idea is to allow having the default language urls un-prefixed.

So adding a translations to existing site is more seamless - it does not require changing current urls, just adding new ones.

That pattern with un-prefixed default language is pretty common - for example https://www.apple.com (which is en_US) and https://www.apple.com/fr/ (fr_FR).

Any other language than the default one is prefixed as before using i18n_patterns.

The idea for that is having a prefix_default_language param to i18n_patterns, which is True by default, to keep it compatible with current approach. Setting it to False will turn on this "feature".

Here's the code: https://github.com/django/django/pull/5823
