Is that the only advantage?
indeed the first one I mentioned could be achieved
through packaging, but not the last two.
Because the source control should have
nothing to do with how the distribution is assembled.
I still don't see why it's worth the effort,
it's a pretty straight
forward task to move them out. Same to add CI job :-)
and the pain.
If you're referring to the possibility of the
cache store build to fail, I don't think this is negative thing as the core test suite
should only get better.
