I can certainly confirm that it works... when it works.  But this does seem to 
be a bug:

In any case:

I think I finally agree.  I've split the repo in four, and have re-organised 
Jenkins to build one-project-per-repo.  I think the upside here is much greater 
than the downside.  (Where the downside is that the projects were genuinely 
fairly closely coupled.  I would regularly push changesets for, say, some 
feature that spanned more than one of them.  Now those will have to be multiple 
commits across multiple repos.  But I can live with that.)
