    <thetext>Right now if you make a change to a layer that&apos;s shipped inside the eSDK (say you do devtool modify on a recipe in OE-Core) and then you want to submit those changes back in the form of a patch, or even share them with someone else, then it&apos;s quite difficult to do so because for a start the layers don&apos;t have their git trees included. This was intentional to try to reduce the size of the SDK installer, but it may be that we should revisit that, provide a way to make it optional, create a fresh git repository for all of the layers, or something else so that we can track such changes.</thetext>
