9 Maybe.

11 The real issue with that is going to be repoman. You can only push as
12 many commits as you can check in general, which means that if you try
13 to push changes to 14 unrelated packages at the same time it is going
14 to be a major hassle.

16 Perhaps if repoman were more git-aware it could just check packages
17 that had a modification. It will still be a limit on how much you can
18 push at once unless you push somewhat blindly.
