On the other hand: What damage would it do if we suggested to every developer 
to clone kde-sdk-scripts? It's not like it's so big that people would think 
twice about wasting precious disk space on scripts they don't need.

If we fear that the most important files on there might get lost among the less 
important ones, we could still improve the folder structure within that 
repository to make clear which are the basic files.

Therefore, from my perspective it would make sense to link to just put the 
files we're discussing here in the kde-sdk-scripts repo (maybe in their own 
folder) and recommend to clone that repo in the wiki?

Would that make sense to you all?
