6 Regardless of the base directory location, I might suggest a path
7 dedicated to repositories, of which the main gentoo repo is just an
8 initial one, and overlays could be placed as additional directories
9 inside.
10
11 /var/lib/portage/repositories/main
12 /var/lib/gentoo/repositories/main
13 /var/cache/gentoo/repos/main
14 /var/cache/portage/repositories/gentoo
15
16 (Something along those lines.)
