It almost looks like he might be tracking his git installation with git
by tracking the "gitVersion" dir, and the "NonGitVersion" dir is really 
the "normal" git repo containing a dev project.  I'm probably making a 
misinterpretation of the wording and "gitVersion" means "stuff versioned 
by git", but then again "NonGitVersion" is also supposedly being 
versioned by git.  Just curious if he's attempting to use his git 
installation to track itself which would be interesting also.
