+1 here.
The way I see it there is a good advantage in having per-app git repos
as you mentioned, specially concerning bandwidth and disk space savings.
This way each app can maintain its whole history (including moves to
playground/kde-review/unmaintained/back to playground), and we would not
be creating a monster repo that is not really interesting for people
that want to hack on one game only, or two. Writing conversion rules for
the whole module + playground would be complex for a monolithic repo, I
think.
