Description

The `.data` directory will allow:
- hiding the `Manifest` file, which is not that useful to see lying around.
- other metadata files (like local config `.data/config` to override global)
- data commands to be run from dataset subdirectories
- a safe (local) directory to place temporary files
- potentially using an embedded git repo in the future (for detailed version history, etc)
