A similar scheme would be to maintain a directory called ~/elisp in git and make ~/.emacs a symlink to ~/elisp/emacs. And pretend that ~/.emacs.d/ does not exist.

1. Perhaps make a new directory `.emacs.d/elisp`, append it to your path and add your files in it and have .gitignore not ignore the directory?

2. You could!
