What is Octarine?

Sometimes I see references to the octarine repo, but I could not find documentation about it. What is the octarine repo? What is the purpose? Can it be used already?

octarine still needs to be documented: https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/developer.puri.sm/-/issues/193 .

It is a repository for developers to initially test their new versions. The software in that repo is not expected to work without errors. Using this repo will break software at times and make it necessary to invest knowledge and work to recover the usability of a Librem5.

One more than a Septarine and one less than a Nontarine!
