Can we get a repo for each major release that contains core, skins, and all extensions in a single checkout? Right now I am updating and with all of the sub modules, I am running into issues where I cant set a branch on the extensions/ repo for REL 1_27 and get all extensions as of that branching, Instead I am forced to go thru one by one and manually set it, if and only if a given extension has said branch set, otherwise I am out of luck.
Getting everything together would cause a larger checkout, but keeps things together for those who want to pick and choose.
It's on my todo list to add all the extensions and skins that are bundled in a release to the core release branch as submodules, just haven't gotten around to it yet.
In addition to the problems/benefits you point out, it also means that the extensions and skins would be included in the signed tags for each release, aiding in reproducibility of a release.
