It is unclear where you want to have standalone programs in the
above.  I'd say lib/ and src/ for the first two, where lib/ is for
things that could be lifted without any Git dependencies and src/
for everything else.

Aren't there some folks who link directly with our codebase (I am
thinking about cgit, but hjemli.net/git/cgit does not seem to be
responding anymore)?
