It's one of the reasons I prefer monorepos in practice. Especially if you use something like GitHub Enterprise, the cross-repo experience in terrible. In theory, many repos is better than a monorepo. In actual practice, most tooling only works well for monorepos. (And don't get me started on CI/CD tooling like GitHub Actions) Or you do what the .NET team at Microsoft did, create a separate monorepo that rolls up individiual repos: https://github.com/dotnet/dotnet https://github.com/dotnet/dotnet
