That's me too. externals only for the cake folder.

Using a vendor branch approach for that would work (adding a clean
cake zip file to your repository, and copying from there to your
working structure as a starting point), although if you are using
externals for the cake folder it might be less hassle to check for
things manually (new things don't appear that often in the app
folder).
