Please reference the design document for the current repository format:

The top-level of the repository is intended to be able to hold a shared
file storage area that crosses publisher boundaries to reduce storage
requirements for specific use cases.
Thank you for the reference.
Perhaps, if I can manage to find the time, I shall write a replacement for
pkgsend that is not constrained by these "specific use cases".
The pkg5.repository file itself is intended to contain metadata that can
drive both pkg.depotd and potentially client behaviour as a whole, so is
necessarily centralised instead of per-publisher.
Is there any documentation for what locking, if any, pkg.depotd uses?
