ah, but I want synchronization across machines. (erm, yes, and I'd like those VM's to be sync'd too, although that's not strictly necessary.) >> Does Git handle nested repositories reasonably well?

I was going to discard this idea, since I *do* want the dot-files versioned, but that can be managed via symlinks, of course. My directory structure isn't that far off from what you describe, either, so maybe I just need to better arrange my home dir. (and make the areas that aren't versioned read-only).
