Not at all. You can &#x27;git add&#x27; (or in the case of the technique above &#x27;config add&#x27;) only the files and folders that are safely stored in a repository. Because of the &#x27;ShowUntrackedFiles&#x27; flag, git&#x2F;config won&#x27;t always show folders you don&#x27;t want to track, which would be annoying.
