This seems to work:

  $ cd ~
  $ git init
  $ echo '*' >.gitignore
  $ echo '!.*' >.gitignore

quoted

Or better: provide a list of directory under $HOME I want to track 

Same thing, but make your ! pattern more specific.

thanks again!

You're welcome, though while reading the quoted text I noticed a typo in
my instructions. The second echo should obviously be _appending_ to
.gitignore:

  $ echo '!.*' >>.gitignore

Hopefully that was obvious, but I thought I would point it out for the
record.
