I feel that this research is biased - it interviews Google engineers.

1. They have a very different experience of working with monolith repositories than others. Especially from engineers working in companies that use services like GitHub, GitLab and Bitbucket as their source control provider. 2. These engineers might or might not have worked in multi-repo projects that are well managed.

I want to know the opinion of developers in the HN community regarding monolith vs multi-repo.

Especially on the 4 metrics emphasized in this paper: 1. Role of universal editability on shipping velocity 2. Role of universal searchability on shipping velocity 3. Role of universal editability on code quality 4. Role of universal searchabilty on code quality
