can handle multiple modules which may overlap in directory trees. So
if things are handled that way, you'd just check out a different module
to get the generated files alongside with the source.
The main cost is checking in the generated files whenever the source files
are changed.
Although it should be possible to do this automatically on the server
side, but that'll need someone to tinker with the configuration to get
it running.
