Haha... Oh, this reminds me... there's Ada mode for Emacs that functions like that. In order to build it you need to combine multiple branches that have each its own contents (i.e. it's essentially multiple repositories combined in one) in the same checkout. It's the most bizarre way to use Git I've seen in my life (outside of total noob stuff, like when a guy wrote his entire project in .gitignore)

On a more serious note: thanks. I see now what that means. Maybe I should find time to look more into the project!
