I usually do like this:

/ <-- project root, stored in git (a private project on guthub)
/fileadmin <-- many folders here but only listed below are stored in git
--/templates <-- all templates are here
--/templavoila <-- TV DSes (sometimes!)
/typo3_src <- a symlink to the shared, my own version of the core
/typo3 <- a symlink to typo3_src/typo3
/t3lib <- a symlink to typo3_src/t3lib
/uploads <-- '*' in .gitignore
/typo3temp <-- '*' in .gitignore
/typo3conf <-- 'ENABLE_INSTALL_TOOL', 'deprecation*' in .gitignore
--/ext <-- stored completely
index.php <-- a symlink to typo3_src/index.php
.htaccess <-- stored
