See my earlier part, assume-unchanged doesn't help due to the gitignore files. Sparse checkout isn't an option since I really need those files to be there, I just don't ever modify them. Really what I need is read-only checkout ;). "Git, please ignore the existence of this directory and all it's files/subdirectories, ktnx".
