Thanks Ken. Perhaps I've been trying to hard to force everything into
one directory. I did find a post on Reddit that describes a convenient
way to create org files for projects anywhere in the directory tree in a
shared global location:

https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/2qwh8q/org_mode_one_massive_file_or_tons_of_small_ones/cnacdpl

This has the benefit of keeping all my planning (.org) files in one
repo, but the disadvantage of separating the planning files from the
project they relate to. Something your approach deals with nicely. I'll
try that out.

Best,

Tyler
