I'd say that "qtgitreadonly" has to point to Gitorious or your local mirror.

New changes should appear on Gitorious every 5 minutes, afaik.

How do you think/propose this should be done in a better way ?

Right now for qtbase we only clone qtbase, for qtdeclarative we clone 
qtdeclarative and the modules it depends on.

If you want to test qtdeclarative for example, you seem to propose to do 
just a "git pull" or something like that in the qtdeclarative directory. 
Where are you going to get its dependencies from ? There are no qtbase 
binaries at the moment.
