Would we merge the directories on each branch and then merge branches?
From what little I know of git I think this would be best.

I think now we definitely would need a merge (basically what the guys on
stack overflow recommend)
After the initial merge I think we could to rebases for the regular
integrations
if we do them often enough. It will require some discipline from everyone,
since
we will need to coordinate these rebases. One a rebased metamodel is pushed
to the main repo everyone will need to make sure not to continue working
of this.
I guess what I am saying is that there is a little more effort for
everyone involved here.
I think it would be worth it though.
+1 for getting test + matrix together asap.
