The idea is I want to track a bunch of projects for my team ... so i was thinking to make a repo that contains something like this: ./MyTEAM/ ./MyTEAM/Project_A/ ./MyTEAM/Project_A/Some_Files/ ./MyTEAM/Project_A/Some_More_Files/ ./MyTEAM/Project_B/ ./MyTEAM/Project_C/ I think you should use a different repo of each project.

Re: [git-users] Do I have to download all files?
From: HWSWMAN ed.pat...@gmail.com If I create a git repo for multiple projects, for example ALL projects that my team works on, when they clone and pull, do they have to download all the files? Can they sort of selectively download the files they may want to read or work on? I believe that one could create a repo with one branch for each project -- that is, the branches would be *completely different* from each other. Since you can pull single branches from a master repository, you should be able to create a dependent repository that contains only the history of the one project. OTOH, Git isn't designed to be used this way, so there are probably a whole bunch of operational problems in implementing this idea.
