Having said that, the corner case is narrow enough (and
hopefully to be gone soon) that I think the current version is
perfectly acceptable for inclusion.

Linus, please apply.  What it does is useful to encourage the
"one topic, one tree" use pattern, the officially recommended
way IIUC.

I am a bit puzzled, though, why Jeff was the original requestor
for this feature --- I thought he handles 50 heads in one
repository which means there is no multiple repositories to
relink across.
