That's a pretty terrible way to share code. Simple example: I work on a project, write some code. Turns out that code is useful for someone else, so they reach in and include it, which is easy since it's all the same repo and all delivered to the build system. Now I make a change and break some customer I didn't even know exists. Oops.

This is what package systems are for.
