That's what the "Repo subdir" column is supposed to help with - that indicates 
which subdirectory within the repository the layer is in. Git does not really 
conveniently allow checking out just a subdirectory so we have to refer to the 
top level. That said, I'm happy to have suggestions on how we can improve the 
index in this regard.

Cheers,
