Add support for grouping repos in sub folders (feature request)

[gregsohl]

It would be useful to group multiple related repositories under a sub folder. For example:

Project Repo 1
Project Repo 2
Utilities\
    Utility Repo 1
    Utility Repo 2 

The code does not appear to be too far from being able to support this. Would need some URL / routing semantics and enhancements to repo folder detection, along with drill down in the UI.

Do you have a proposed URL structure for this, BTW?

[gregsohl]

I was thinking of inserting the folder between the Action and the Repo name.

ex.
https://server/manage/subfolder/MyRepo.git
https://server/browse/subfolder/MyRepo.git
https://server/git/subfolder/MyRepo.git

I was thinking there were one or two routes that didn't fall well into this and would need adjustment. For example the graph controller uses: "browse/{repo}/graph". Would it make sense to change it to "graph/{repo}"?
Search and syndication are the same way.

Minor changes, but breaking of people existing URLs.

Wouldn't that make the URLs ambiguous, potentially?

I also use subfolders for Repo
