I don't have any particular need to keep it separate... I just noticed that the ELPA .gitignore filters out empty directories (is that the \#*\# rule?), which messes up the maildirs in this package (they need empty new/ and tmp/ directories). Can I get special dispensation for this? Or maybe an external branch is the way to go after all, if it can have its own .gitignore rules?
