------------------------------------------

hi [~cschneider], i slightly adjusted the summary to capture the generic request. your need to have a mixin type definition updated is one example. but the same would apply for regular node types.

> My use case is to extend an existing mixin with an additional property. 
> For new repositories this works but for existing repositories the existing mixin is unchanged.
> As my code requires the new property I get errors.
>  
> So I propose that repoinit allows to update existing mixins (and possibly other structures).
