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?

    ~/workspace/git

    That way I can also keep other stuff in the same “workspace” directory and keep everything else clean

    I have a Code, simulations, ECAD, and FreeCAD folder in the workspace folder where projects or 1-offs are stored and when I want to bring them to git, I copy them over, play around in the project folders again, then copy changes over when I am ready to commit.

    I could better use branching and checking out in git, but large mechanical assemblies work badly on git.
