Will do in v2, might also look into whether this part of the code can
be refactored already into its own file; having it similar to the
structure we have in Checks.py.

We could then name Checks.py as SyntaxChecks.py and name this new file
for the metadata checks of the loop as MetadataChecks.py; then later,
we can look into creating VCSDiffChecks.py.

Given that these files could grow, we will probably want to split the
files up and put the split up files into directories like
checks/syntax/, checks/metadata/ and so on.

I really would love to see repoman refactored, redesigned and/or
rewritten; but it is to soon for me to do this the most wise way, as I
need to understand the code. I plan to do this 2 - 4 weeks from now.
