If sourcing from an SCM, please follow the guildelines of the Salesforce MetaData API about where to put and how to name your files. When files are downloaded from Salesforce, they will already come in the correct locations with appropriate names, so no modification should be necessary.
Not all organizations support all of these object types. Although the column says yes, your organizations may not have access to them. Contact Salesforce to join pilot programs if desired.
