This makes sense to me.

I'm still a git novice, but as far as I understand from the man
page,
"git add -A ~/Zim" would only add files in ~/Zim to the git
index.
This definitely needs to be changed in Zim, because Zim should
definitely not commit files which are outside of its own tree.
As my
experience showed, that can cause serious problems. And also,
in the
use case you described, most people probably wouldn't want Zim
to
commit unstaged changes in ~/code/project/whatever when it
commits
changes in ~/code/project/data/manual.
Thanks for your work on Zim.
