Yes, I always have .sw? at the top of .gitignore.

I never do manual commits here; every single commit is always 'wip'. I'm basically not using that feature of git. I'm just using it for (dumb) history/backup and distribution.

I always setup the git repos with ssh, not https. The central (for each environment) git repo is a bare checkout on my personal account on a linode or tektonic VPS.

In short, since I can ssh from my various client machines to these central servers with no password, the git pull/push just works.
