</span>Thank you very much for doing this! I’m now convinced that there’s a clean way to move from existing git clones to the unified repository.<br>
<br>
I think that we do need some decent documentation for how people with clones of the existing <a href="http://github.com/llvm-mirror" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">github.com/llvm-mirror</a> repos produce a unified repository that they can then merge from upstream, but it looks pretty nice.<br>
<br>
It will require a bit of effort for us to update various scripts, CI jobs, and so on to make use of this, but it looks as if the end result will be a lot easier to work with and worth the transition pain.<br>
<br>
On a fast machine with a decent Internet connection, a fresh clone of this repo takes about one minute, 40 seconds, transfers 458.56MB and produces a directory that uses 876MB of disk space. These numbers all look very reasonable.<br>
