Hi, mysql project is using https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/mysql-extras.git/ (i.e. an own repository) to track patches. What I like about it: 1) We track patches/changes due to using a VCS. 2) We can fetch directly from gitweb.gentoo.org, i.e. no need to adjust SRC_URI when changing a patch.

And it would be nice to also recall the overlays, which can also use repoman (and/or mgorny's travis hook for that), but at the same time have no possibility to self-host the patches... // well, I personally would prefer that repoman had an option to "ignore" some (specified as an argument)
