[git] Workspace layout: Equinox vs. git

Hi, me again,

after I got the Object Teams repo massaged so that PDE/Build + Git fetch factory
can work with the existing structure including old tags (hooray!), I ran into an issue 
where (E)Git and Equinox impose conflicting requirements:

- We have a fragment that is a framework extension
- Any framework extension must be located next to the org.eclipse.osgi bundle
- I want to debug the framework extension which I have in my workspace
- EGit imports projects by linking to the repo clone under ${HOME}/git
- Our framework extension and org.eclipse.osgi do not reside in the same git repo.
=> I cannot arrange projects so that they sit side-by-side in the same
   parent directory.
=> The framework extension will not be recognized by org.eclipse.osgi.

Back in the old (cvs then svn) days, it was no problem to have projects physically
within the workspace. With (E)git this seems to be a dead end.

Does this mean, equinox framework extensions cannot be developed using git??
I must be missing something.

Any ideas?

TIA,
Stephan
