Having the code directly in the root is possible but not a good style or to be recommended - because often projects include more than just the source code and over time include more and more things like docu or other.
Thanks for the explanation for where this comes from. This helps me understand where my confusion comes from: the assumption that there would be one root for source. That is not always the case. There can be multiple sub projects (casually used, not in the git subproject terms), each with their own source root. Mapping from smalltalk code to file systems has all kinds of annoying/interesting aspects. And I understand the difficulty/impossibility/undesirability of supporting everything that git makes possible. I seem to have missed some design discussions/decisions and really like the mails here about them. And I like the booklets very much too. Stephan
