Hi,
I really don't like the layout of the repository. I would expect that
cloning the maxima repository would only give me the sources for
maxima, but now I also get the webpage, izic and other stuff. These
should be in separate repositories.
This is especially annoying because in a freshly cloned repository git
reports that the files izic/zic/lib/zic_mntG.c and
maxima-pre59/src/SYS-PROCLAIM.lisp are modified and I don't know how
to fix this. This happens on Windows and OSX, probably because the
filesystems are not case sensitive.
