But, I don't think it is sensible to clone "additional" repos into an OpenJDK forest.  Earlier, this thread started because you didn't want to break existing scripts, but you are as likely to break other scripts if you start cloning repos from other projects anywhere under the root of an OpenJDK forest.

Ok, I buy that.

I opened an enhancement request on JBS for moving webrev.ksh from the JDK repo to a new code-tools repo:
