Hi,
Since Bitbucket and Github uses Git, one can simulate this by using multiple
remotes. This is how NVDA code is managed, and this is how Mesar can
integrate braille table enhancements (Bitbucket) into LibLouis/Github master
(Github) by pushing changes to one or the other via remotes. In my case, I
use a single directory and have set up two remotes within this repo, one for
Bitbucket (UEB and Korean braille enhancements) and Github (for downloading
latest commits from the main repo).
Cheers,
Joseph

This is just how a distributed version control system works. Having two
branches in a single repository is essentially equivalent to having two
repositories. Anybody can make as many clones and keep as many branches as
he wants without having to have commit access to the main repo, and merging
branches later is trivial, that's the beauty of it.
It seems that the Bitbucket repo, or the scratch space as Mesar describes
it, has been quite useful in the SVN era. We could achieve the same thing
with Github forks now, which would be good for uniformity. I don't have a
strong preference for one or the other approach.
