Adding files to a project in Geany doesn't add a relation between the
files and project, files in a project in Geany is just an extended way
of session management, i.e. Geany will re-open all files you had opened
when the project was opened last time.

Plus things like 'make in basepath' and a per-project run command.
Further features are to come, namely per-project properties like
template data and some editor prefs like indentation. But this still
needs to be discussed, designed and finally implemented.
