Maybe then there should be a common directory used for per-developer html
demos, which would be added to .gitignore? Let's say something like
"demo-internal" where everyone can keep his/her files for development demos
without accidentely including them in an commit? Once the demo moves into
the demo folder, it would be required to use the online versions of OL,
jQuery and so on?

Cheers,
