just a reminder:
extragear is not going to be a giant repo, it'll be individual projects (go 
see the svn2git progress chart I made on the git migration wiki page - are 
people still using that?)

it's the SC modules - kdebase, kdegames, etc - that will be single repos. :)

also, iirc thiago once said that moving something *in* is relatively easy, 
it's moving it out again that's harder.
