Re: Multiple repositories with mixed directories (newbie)

Hi Ulrich,

Thanks a lot for your reply. At least I know now it's just not possible.
I can't change the layout because I've created a couple
applications/script which use the current layout to create 'installable'
versions of the website. Also in the code I refer to some paths which
would be a enormous job to fix.

I'll just create one repos than where all the modules are put in.
