to avoid this problem. It won't expand the .hg top-level directory. Or find ( -type d -name .hg -prune ) -o ... I'm torn. Yours is more obvious, but we'd likely need to add .svn, .git, How many of those dot-files/directories are there beside .*ignore?

That's all I can think of. And the files don't matter in this case, anyway. So probably just .svn, .hg, .git is all we'd need.

etc. Maybe find $(srcdir)/[a-zA-Z]* ... would be good enough to ignore all dot directories/files? On the other hand yes, I think it'd be enough.

I can go either way.
