This can't be merged until we at least provide a new mechanism for users to get hold of the latest binaries.

The binaries could be placed under a special branch, or better still under an entirely separate repository, e.g. core-apps.

As well as hosting the latest bin/hex/elf files for the tinker app, the core-apps repo would later grow to host the compiled libraries (.a) from the 3 firmware repos and the required header files, allowing users to compile locally by downloading just one repo.

Somebody please hurry up and create a golden image repository, and stash &
tag things in there as part of the official build process, I'm heartily
sick of this:

...
Updating b1855fe..6cf8c10
error: Your local changes to 'build/core-firmware.bin' would be overwritten
by merge. Aborting.
Please, commit your changes or stash them before you can merge.

We will begin adding downloadable binaries to the github releases.

And there was much rejoicing.
