      Can't we use, say, just one git directory for all of them? (Making them multiple working directories for a single git repository.) It would save a lot of disk space and internet traffic.

      At the very least, maybe we can use master-project's cloned repository as a remote for sub-projects? Local git clone uses hardlinks so the disk space and traffic would be preserved without changing how it looks inside each workdir.
