Myself, I keep all of my Geany project files in a top-level ~/Projects 
directory and below that a sub-directory for each project's source tree. 
  I also add 'configure' and 'Makefile's to my VCS ignore file as to not 
check them in (assuming they're auto-generated by Autotools or whatever).

 From my observations, it's quite rare to see developers' personal 
"project files" in a project's source tree or checked into VCS.  Even a 
Geany-specific project like geany-plugins doesn't contain a single 
project file in its repository (from a quick `find' for *.geany).

My $0.02
