Both git and hg allow you to pull patches from other repos to a "branch".  
Since each branch is created from the devel/ directory there is a history in 
place that is used when pulling a patch set.

What we gain is a far easier way to do ACLs, a much easier way to get history 
of changes on a given repo, and a much easier way to get just the devel/ or 
FC-6/ branches of a given package (or all the devel's)
