That sounds pretty awful to me. So you want two new repos: an extra repo and 
an extra-extra repo. Why not just one extra repo? Who decides what goes into 
what repo? Is the extra repo more 'blessed' than the extra-extra repo? Will 
the extra-extra git repo be ported to API changes that happen in llvm/clang, 
or will only the extra one be ported (as part of doing the actual API 
change)?

Thanks,

Steve.
