But LLVM does not keep everything in a single repository. In fact, it's quite
the opposite: they have a separate repo for Clang (the frontend, ~ gcc/c, cp,
...), for compiler-rt (~ libgcc), for libc++ (~ libstdc++).
All utilities (~ libiberty) live in the LLVM repo (include/llvm/ADT,
include/llvm/Support, lib/Support). Other projects, like LLDB, are checked out
into a subdirectory, and are always built from the combined tree.
