Comment(by jhpalmieri):

 Two comments:

  - is there a problem with distributing the root repo?  It takes up a
 little disk space, but it's pretty innocuous, isn't it?

  - I can think of one situation where it might be useful to distribute the
 repo: someone has downloaded Sage and wants to immediately apply a patch
 to "Makefile", "spkg/standard/deps", etc.  Without the root repo, this is
 inconvenient.
