But it seems that for now this can be really difficult for
refactorings that are crosscutting
several packages since you will have to look in different locations.
So this
can be a real pain. Or will I publish in another repository so this
means that we will create
a lot of hidden dependencies because even if I work regularly but
another master is on holiday
then the v3.9 team can be just out of the loop to get my changes in.
