IIC you want to use the lib1 project in some common path if your
developer does not have a local (modified) copy locally on his computer.
Well I suggest that in case the developer does not have a local copy
that he should just define a symbolic link in his filesystem. IMO this
is better because this way the developer explicitly needs to state if
he's using the common version or a local copy.
