Personally, to keep my documents like Inkscape files or LibreOffice documents separate from my code, I add a directory under my home directory called Development. There, I can do git clones to my heart’s content

What do you all do?

      Admittedly, that irks me slightly just because of the shared name with the devices folder in root, but do what works for you.
