I've been in this situation before! It's quite frustrating. That's why
I've suggested previously that we set up a community git repository to
which we all have access, then we can try out various different Org
development initiatives while they are developed and/or being considered
for inclusion. I have this fork of Org

git://github.com/dandavison/org-devel.git

and I'm happy to give anyone write access so that we can share patches
in a more convenient way.

This would be an improvement. For example, who knows where to find the
most recent version of Nicolas Girard's org-icons project? If things
like that were stashed in a community repo then forwards momentum could
be more easily maintained.

It doesn't mean maintaining multiple Org repos in different places on
your local machine; effectively it would just becomes another branch
when you add the community repo using "git remote add".
