This is probably a stupid question, but I couldn't find an answer. Does this mean Google keeps all of its different products in all their different languages and environments in one repo? So like, Android lives in the same repo as Gmail, which is the same repo as all the Waymo code and the Google search engine code as well? That seems insane to me.

Android & chromium are kept outside the monorepo

Yes, exactly. The self-driving car is in there too.

Why does that seem insane?
