If you meant "conditional include" by "proposed approach above", I
do not see which part you found possibly hacky.  It is to allow
different set of configurations to apply depending on where you are
working at, which I think was invented exactly for something like
this.

It certainly is not any hackier than using the same repository to
house separately manged projects even if they may be related
projects.

Where does the aversion of "having separate repositories" primarily
come from?  Is it bad due to disk consumption?  Is it bad because
you cannot do "git diff android-branch kernel-branch"?  Something
else?

If it is purely disk consumption that is an issue, perhaps the real
solution is to make it easier to maintain separate repositories
while sharing as much disk space as possible.  GC may have to be
made a lot more robust in the presense of alternate object stores,
for example.
