Per-component repositories

[David Herron]

Hi Kelly, thank you, and I also found the same thing described on the 
internal page you set up.

I'm thinking right now my original question probably doesn't have a 
strong use-case-justification.  Is there any reason to check out just 
one of the repositories?  (just one tree rather than the whole forest) 

However there is the issue of the individual team repositories.  Is 
there a way to discover the full set of repositories we're hosting on 
openjdk.java.net??  And also the parent/child relationships between 
those repositories?

(This might be OT for discussion in the guide)

- David
