Rather than coding on a separate repo wouldn't using a fork on GitHub be
better ?
There's the eclipselabs organization at GitHub, we can place a fork of
Platform UI and Platform Text and let you be a committer on those so you
can create branches and so on. It wouldn't make things harder to work with,
and it would more easily allow to consume latest Platform change and merge
back interesting parts.
Or maybe there's a good way for Platform to provide "experimental" Git
repositories for non-committers?
