I don't think there is one; AFAIK there are only git trees for a couple
parts of src.

My understanding is that gdb changes can be made without worrying about
the consequence to the Insight bits, because Insight is not "official"
in some way.
I would suggest that this also applies to build infrastructure -- IMO it
would be ok for you to move forward with the main parts and fix this up
later.

FWIW, I tend to agree. I know this sort of change is very difficult to
get in and I think it would be worthwhile to bend the rules a little to
make it simpler for you.
