Just the products, so that they are easier to keep in synch between 
customers. I think it is dangerous to put the Data.fs in there too.

Beside I only ever develop on the filesystem. Even if I just need to put 
skin files into the custom folder I make a filesystem based skin instead.

Yes, that is a good idea! I will probably start doing that too. It will 
make updating a lot faster, as it is only the diffs that needs to be 
moved over the net.

But I could imagine it being a bit of a headache with products shared 
between different customers, if the repository structure is wrong.

All the shared products would need to be in their own repository anyway.
