Given how little dev I do, I'm not entitled to an opinion, but given the
number of messages I see to the mailing lists that end up as being
checkout synch problems, I see this as a recipe for trouble, particularly
for regression testing.

Because this is just an infrastructure/procedure change to the dev
process, it should be easy enough to revert if it proves problematic, so
I remove my -0.
