Editing a branch/client view

The question:
    Is there an easier/better way of doing this?
The background:
    Client ihtestgeom is only editing files in the src directory.
However, she also needs to see the top level files and the files in the
tests and tools directory.  The gotcha is that I want her to only have
read access to the files she is not supposed to edit, yet she has to be
able to see changes that have occured in those files in the main
branch.  Also, it would be better if the clientview was less complicated
even if that caused the branchview to be very complicated.  I
accomplished this one way by the following branch/client combination:

Branch: geom_ines

Description:
        Testing how to reset what each person sees
        in a given client.  I want each person to
        be able to integrate just the directories
        they are interested in and only have to sync
        to the main branch for the rest of the stuff.
