I got this question from a client yesterday that I didn't know how to answer because I focus primarily on the porting effort (getting coreboot to build and boot for their hardware) and let the client figure out how they want to manage the resulting code base once the porting effort is complete. So I offered to inquire of the coreboot community to see if anybody can provide an answer for my client.
Below is the inquiry that I received: I'm looking at how best to structure our coreboot repositories. Does the coreboot build system support the concept of external patches? With buildroot you can keep your changes is a directory tree separate from the FOSS tree. Then during the build step your patches get applied and compiled using another separate build tree.
