There's no compulsion to have settings.py inside the project directory (it also doesn't have to be called settings.py, so you can put the settings files for a number of projects in the same directory if you name them carefully). For my personal work, I keep my settings.py files for production settings outside of the project directory so that I can just untar the new version of the code, update a symlink to the latest version and reload the webserver process, without needing to remember to update the settings file.
