Could you please elaborate more on this?  I mean, could you please tell
why sepearate repositories would be a problem?  I think that a single
repository will be actually problematic for two reasons.  First the
history for the individual packages would be mixed together.  Ditto for
the tags.

I think that you could get around it using git-submodule.  I will take a
look at it and see how it could be used in our case.
