Personally, to keep my documents like Inkscape files or LibreOffice documents separate from my code, I add a directory under my home directory called Development. There, I can do git clones to my heart’s content

What do you all do?

    Is “code”, “designs” and “wiki” here just some example files in the repo or are those sub-folders, and you only have the repo underneath code?

      They are the project’s subfolders (outside of the Git repo):

      • code contains the source code; version-controlled with Git.
      • wiki contains documentation and also version-controlled.
      • designs contains GIMP, Inkscape or Krita save files.

      This structure works for me since software projects involve more things than just the code, and you can add more subfolders according to your liking such as notes, pkgbuild (for Arch Linux), or releases.
