You can't directly cherry pick between them unless it's a branch of the
same repo.

I haven't heard any concrete reason for them to be separate.  They're
content that belongs in the regular grimoire, with some of the same
sections and some new ones.  They're pretty much topic branches by
definition.  I'd rather not setup yet another set of ACLs/etc. unless
there's a good reason.
