There are 2 general choices that might make it easier - either put them
on hub which provides git repos on demand or github where we have an org
account. Though I need to check if the org put's it name on a github
repo if it counts against the org quota.

With the use of git there is not reason to have 1 single repo for all
plugins, that kinda defeats the purpose of using git where it's cheap
and easy to setup small repos per plugin.

Thanks,
Alex
