The only catch I can see is that there might be an expectation that if you run, say, "git-pull" in the src directory, it will only update the files in src and will leave the ones in the other top-level directories alone. For example, "svn update" works that way. But honestly I think touching files outside the current subdirectory is much less of an inconvenience (and it's something you only get surprised by once, if at all) than not working in subdirectories at all. -Steve
