I know what we'll do. We'll imbed the directory name and the subdirectory name into the name of the repository:

No amount of rationalization can provide a reason for this absurdity. Some of Jed's rationalizations are going off the deep end. * In order to not have a Releases directory he states: "I think separate clones for every release is clutter." * "Bitbucket's normal repository summary has space for this bit of text. It doesn't specifically have tags or automatic suggestions of repositories that might be related (but are not forks). I think the summary is good enough." Face it, bitbucket has this really stupid feature. I see no upside to bitbucket and hence I only see a downside, so why change? Except Sean doesn't want to drag his ass over to IIT twice a year and people want to use buggy wireless networks. Tell me the real reason you want to use bitbucket.
